The pre-extras master site has the source RPMS, see http://fedoraproject.org/pre-extras/3/, i386/srpms, and x86_64/srpms. No, I don't know why it was made this way, and I hope it's a temporary arrangement that will change in the near future (meaning both availability of the SRPMS in the fedora.us mirror as well as moving the SRPMS into a dir where users expect to see them in the master). > Let me go further and say that if Fedora Extras is to be the "partner" of > Fedora Core, then it should be on the same mirrors as Fedora Core.
