SYNOPSIS

       pull-lp-source [options] source package [release|version]

DESCRIPTION

       pull-lp-source  downloads  and  extracts the specified version of <source package> from Launchpad, or the
       latest  version  of  the  specified  release.   To  request  a  version  from  a  particular  pocket  say
       release-pocket  (with  a  magic  -release  for  only  the  release  pocket).  If no version or release is
       specified, the latest version in the development release will be downloaded.

OPTIONS

       Listed below are the command line options for pull-lp-source:

       source package
              This is the source package that you would like to be downloaded from Launchpad.

       version
              This is the version of the source package to be downloaded.

       release
              This is the release that you would like the source package to  be  downloaded  from.   This  value
              defaults to the current development release.

       -m UBUNTU_MIRROR, --mirror=UBUNTU_MIRROR
              Use  the specified Ubuntu mirror.  Should be in the form http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu.  If the
              package isn't found on this mirror, pull-lp-source will  fall  back  to  Launchpad,  as  its  name
              implies.

              Do not read any configuration files, or configuration from environment variables.
