Title:
  add-apt-repository ppa:username does not add deb-src entry

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  this is probably related to the fix for bug 301602 but is not exactly
  a duplicate one

  running `sudo add-apt-repository ppa:username` creates
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kwwii-ppa-karmic.list with only the 'deb'
  entry for the compiled binaries but does not add the corresponding
  deb-src entry which are also available from the PPA

  this prevents the user from trivially investigating/patching the
  source for a package they found via PPA
