These days I find it much easier to use pull-debian-source (for Debian
source packages) or pull-lp-source (for Ubuntu source packages), both in
the ubuntu-dev-tools package.  It saves having to have exactly matching
deb-src lines for whatever I'm doing (bearing in mind that I'm often
working on several different releases at the same time) and worry about
whether my apt cache is absolutely up to date.
