+This file is optional. `<pkgname>` is the name of the source package,
+`<pkgver>` is the upstream version of the source package (see
+$[sectlink][src-ver]), and `<ext>` is an optional file extension to indicate
+compression.
+
+This file is a tar archive containing the source files for non-native packages.
+There must be exactly one top-level directory in the archive.
+
+The file may be compressed, in which case `<ext>` must be one of the following:
+
+ * `.gz` for the "gzip" algorithm,
+ * `.bz2` for the "bzip2" algorithm,
+ * `.lz` for the "LZMA" algorithm, or
+ * `.Z` for the "compress" algorithm.
+
+If the file is not compress, `<ext>` must be empty.
