Re: [newbie question] Does the fis-gtm package exist as both binary and source packages?



A classical Debian package is always composed by a source package (the
combination of the upstream source code and the Debian-specific
metadata and scripts, i.e. the /debian repository) and a binary
package (the .deb you would install on your system).
If a specific upstream source has been uploaded to the repository, and
changes are made to the Debian-specific bits, the upstream tarball
would not be changed but a new version of the /debian files will be
created, along with a new version of the binary package.
If a new upstream version is released, the new upstream tarball along
with an updated /debian folder is uploaded, and also the new binary
package.

Does that answer your question?
