I like fish! And agonizing over solving the Finite Sub-Cuddling hypothesis!

The chameleon, incidentally, says "Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaattthh!"

Immediate goal: stop wasting time on this site. It's an addiction like any other.

Is the tree I see from those packages? If yes, do they relocate wherever the source tree was before installing them? Many thanks again.

Thank you very much for this detailed and rather complete answer. This had been bugging me for a while. If I'm not overextending my welcome, and if you find the time, could I kindly add, following up: (a) I read the above that in my case (not self-installed kernel), some (one) of the sub directories should(might) contain the kernel C and Assembler source code.
