The normal scripts that push out the security and fastbug errata have the debuginfo and source rpm's automatically pushed out. The scripts that move a release out into the rolling area, and then over to the final area, do things in steps. So there is a separate script for the i386 area, the x86_64 area, the source rpm area, and the debuginfo area. Until we hit the release candidate stage, the source rpm area and the debuginfo area are sorta optional. We may or may not run the source rpm script, depending on how busy we are at the time, or if we have been having problems with packages and we might not want the source rpm's to be pushed out because they are still in flux. I just ran the script, so all the source rpm's should be up in the rolling area now.
