NAME

       pull-lp-source - download a source package from Launchpad

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.

       -h, --help
              Display a help message and exit.

       -d, --download-only
              Do not extract the source package.

       -m UBUNTU_MIRROR, --mirror=UBUNTU_MIRROR

              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.
