You can build them yourself using the build dependencies from Debian.
If you go that route then that is when you'll need the "deb-src" entries
in your sources list. There are some guides on the net:
Or there is sometimes a Debian package provided by a third party on a
best effort basis, but may need some massaging, see:

P.S. Google is your friend, careful search terms will
gradually decrease your reliance on this list.
