Package: aptitude
Version: 0.2.15.8-1
Severity: wishlist

One very helpful improvement to aptitude would be if it would handle
browsing/installing source packages from deb-src sources.

When pointing at the regular debian repositories, this isn't always
necessary, since every source package should be already compiled
(although, this isn't necessarily the case--the amd64 port, for
instance, since it not all packages are currently build). However,
this is very useful for 3rd-party repositories, where being able to
browse/download/install source packages and their build-deps from
within aptitude's GUI would be a very useful feature.
