Its not quite clear to me what you expect to happen here. If 1.2.14-1
is available in Oneiric and you disable the Oneiric sources it makes
sense to me that you wouldn't be able to download the source for
1.2.14-1. Could you elaborate as tho what exactly happens in Maverick?
(if that's the release that behaves the way you expect)

Title:
apt-get source does not download the correct version
Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
On an up to date Oneiric, if I have deb-src lines for all the stable
releases, Debian and Oneiric, and I do:
$ apt-get source xmlsec1=1.2.14-1
Then 1.2.14-1.2 is downloaded from Oneiric. If I remove the Oneiric entry and try again, 1.2.14-1.2 is downloaded from Debian. If I remove the Debian entries, then I get:
$ sudo apt-get update # this returns no errors
$ apt-get source xmlsec1=1.2.14-1
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Ignore unavailable version '1.2.14-1.2' of package 'xmlsec1'
E: Unable to find a source package for xmlsec1
I checked in a maverick VM, and it all works fine. 'apt-get check'
works fine. This functionality is important to the workflow of the
security team. I'll attach a sources.list shortly.
