New submission from Shreyan Avigyan <shreyan.avig...@gmail.com>:

I'm trying to build CPython on Ubuntu but I can't get the external 
dependencies. Running this command :-

$ sudo apt-get build-dep python3

gives the output :-

Reading package lists... Done
E: You must put some 'deb-src' URIs in your sources.list

What is the exact string to add to /etc/apt/sources.list?

System Info: Ubuntu 20.04.1 (Focal Fossa)
Architecture: x64
GCC version: 9.3.0

(I've posted the problem in this issue tracker because Google and Stack 
Overflow doesn't seem to have an answer. I'm sorry for posting this here but no 
one seem to have the answer to this apart from core or experienced developers.)
