Running "apt-get source <package>" from an Ubuntu system seems much more
convenient, and there should be a way to run or script it so that it
fetches the source for all packages.

Also, depending on what the OP needs it for, Debian may do. Debian
offers source CDs for download:

Anyway, this is off-topic for this list.
