It's called pull-debian-source $ pull-debian-source mypkg $ pull-debian-source mypkg experimental $ pull-debian-source mypkg 0.2.3-3.2 It uses the archive & snapshots to pull in historical versions. >From the ubuntu-dev-tools package available in stable and up. There is also equivalent pull-lp-source with same arguments to pull ubuntu packages instead of debian. I haven't seen similar tool for other derivatives.
