Acquiring Source Code in Ubuntu

  1. Update/enable the source package URLs. Note that in Ubuntu, these should already be in the sources.list file and just need to be uncommented. i.e. remove the "#" from the deb-src lines
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hirsute main restricted
