Let \(q\) be a prime power, let \(p\) be a prime not dividing \(q\), and let \(D\) be a finite \(p\)-group. The author shows that the source algebras of unipotent \(p\)-blocks of \(\text{GL}(n,q)\) with defect group \(D\), as \(n\) varies, fall into finitely many isomorphism classes. This establishes a special case of a general conjecture of Puig and extends earlier results of \textit{T. Jost} [Manuscr. Math. 91, No. 1, 121-144 (1996; Zbl 0896.20009)] on a conjecture of Donovan. The proof makes use of \textit{L. Puig}'s refinement [Algebra Colloq. 1, No. 1, 25-55 (1994; Zbl 0830.20024)] of methods introduced by \textit{J. Scopes} [J. Algebra 142, No. 2, 441-455 (1991; Zbl 0736.20008)].
