Indeed, the list that was used is no longer provide by the BTS and
in commit r2518 I updated some other part of the code to work without
that sources.map file. At that time I did not notice that the mail
part of the PTS was still using it... cf $sources in perl/common.pl.
So we have to reintroduce that file somehow (UDD export?) or adjust the mail
part to get this information in some other way. Giovanni, do you feel like
taking care of this problem ?

Stop relying on sources.map file that used to be provided by the BTS.
Instead we compute our own map.

Yes, it's only cosmetic.
