Ticket #13186, comment 12
initial v1 17 17 > The first type is completely unproblematic, good job. The problem is with the second type, which always fetches files from upstream. 18 18 19 This not how it works... Both types of package managers actually fetches file from upstream. The only difference between the first and the second type is that, in the fist type, a package maintainer does the fetching once beforehand (and also compiles the software) so users don't have to do it themselves (as compared to the second type where they executed the build recipe themselves on their side).19 This not how it works...

Our packaging tooling automatically fetches files from upstream according to the source declared in our build recipes.
