Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apt
While specifying a distribution for apt-get install is supported (e.g.
"apt-get install duplicity/gutsy"), it is not supported for apt-get
source yet:
$ apt-get source duplicity/gutsy
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to find a source package for duplicity/gutsy
A workaround for this is using "apt-cache madison <package>" and then
requesting a specific version, which is supported (e.g. "apt-get source
duplicity=0.4.2-16ubuntu1").
** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
