Am using wicd as an example because I needed to look it up anyway: https://packages.debian.org/experimental/wicd The right-hand column has a "Download Source Package" heading with several files under it. Source files can (at least sometimes) be found under Debian's own repository location, too. An example there is: http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/wicd/ That location can be overwhelming to wade through depending on one's level of experience. The reason is because anything available for active releases will be found lumped together in a single directory instead of filed under their respective release code names the way packages dot Debian does. Out of curiosity, I just checked ibiblio for source files: https://distro.ibiblio.org/debian/pool/main/w/wicd/ No source files were present. It's just an executive decision each volunteer repository makes depending on how much extra space they might have available to share. As a P.S. to Debian's own repository, poking around in there years ago is how I finally started grasping how our package managers do their amazing job. P.P.S. Reading text files under /var/lib/apt/lists was another fun place to play back then, too. Was one of my favorite ah-ha moments in figuring out how Debian performs with such consistent accuracy.

Trying to find the source iso's for debian buster and bookworm
Several versions back, we could download the source code on various iso files for previous and current releases. Where can those be found for Buster and Bookworm? Several searches turned up nothing. Thanks.
