Hi,

I was wondering if is or ever will be possible to install srpms using
yum. In the yum manpage it says you can specify a package using
'package.arch', so I was wondering if that could be done with
'package.src'. I think this would really be a helpful feature. At the
moment to get a srpm I have to go to one of the ftp mirrors, find the
right folder then search for the right package among hundreds of other
files.
