Package: apt
Version: 0.6.46.4-0.1
Severity: wishlist

apt-get source packagename tells the user step by step what it is doing,
except when verifying the files.

so,  if  something goes  wrong  during  verification  (for instance,  if
there's a lockfile some killed process),  all the user knows is that the
files where downloaded and apt-get is holding still.

being a bit more verbous would  allow the user to understand what apt is
doing and, in case of problems, how to fix them.

Given that no additional information was given in 9 years keeping this
bugreport non-actionable it seems unlikely it will ever be actionable.

Closing therefore as if this bug really exists (still) reporting it anew
with more details is the far better approach than keeping this one just
in case we ever have an issue again which happen to fit the title…
