Back then this was written, it was true, but nowadays (and for years) dak is independent of apt-ftparchive, so apt-ftparchive (not) supporting contents for source packages has nothing to do with packages.debian.org anymore – "ftp.debian.org" would, but: The Release file of at least the current releases have a Contents-source file (for each Component), which looks like it includes the requested data, so instead of cloning I am just dropping the block.
