But many of the gates aren't designed to allow you to build just the
sources to one package - the source <-> package naming is very strange
in many of them, especially those like ON and X that had the package
breakdown done years ago.
Do you really want to do "apt-get source SUNWcsr" and have it get the
entire ON source tree?
JDS designed their package breakdown to match the RPM model, with
the binary packages closely matching the source packages, but even
SFW isn't a good fit for that model today, with a single man page
package covering all the components.
