Instead, the source is distributed as every other source package, usually in three files: the .orig.tar.gz, the .diff.gz and the .dsc. There is a new .deb package, pine-tracker, which gives you detailed instructions about how to build it. I'm reassigning this bug to the www.debian.org package as a reminder that whatever incorrect info about pine should be fixed (perhaps it comes from the doc-debian package, please reassign it as appropriate).
