Under pacman based Parabola you need to look at PKGBUILD to look for possible sources (but you must first of all unpack an *.pkg.tar.xz i.e. an pacman binary), under Debian and derivatives like Trisquel and Devuan there is a Debian sources extension .dsc but almost impractical (more likely a control file over binaries instead of a source, at least under simple ways like pacman systems). Now I am here on Fedora and I need to study to install RPM sources (*.src.rpm, from few URL) under dnf, its Dandified packaging tool.
