Ok.
Think I found another bug, one that could be changed in to a "feature" ;-).
It is assumed that you have already downloaded the binary using setup.exe -4.
When uninstalling a binary package, such as patch, from setup.exe, the logical result is
that the patch binary is removed.
You can then, using snapshot -4, download the source by selecting revision 0.0 and setting
"src=ticked". Interesting. The funny/interesting thing is that if you have the binary installed, revision
0.0 does not appear ;-). Revision 0.0 only appears after an uninstall of the binary package has
occurred, or at least so it would seem.
Anyway. Just something I found...;-)
