Finding a source package

[Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca>]

We have rather a bit of a problem.. As it stands it is not possible to
locate the source tar.gz and .dsc without searching in all cases,

Consider the fragment from the package file (below). Notice how this
multi-binary package creates .debs in two sections, it is indeterminate
if the source package is in source/libs or source/oldlibs!

I suggest that we enhance the source: field to include the section, for
instace for aalib it could look like

source: libs/aalib

This is imporant for tha package section on the FTP site (that has links
to the source package) and for the proposed apt-get source <package>
command.
