如何通过apt-get获得安装包的源码

有时候我们需要获得某个可执行程序的源码，而不仅仅是一个可执行程序，比如我们想获取tree这个工具的源码，这时候就可以采用下面的命令：

sudo apt-get source tree

pengdl@debian:~$ sudo apt-get source tree

gpgv: keyblock resource `/root/.gnupg/trustedkeys.gpg': file open error
gpgv: Signature made Sat  Feb  :: AM EST using DSA key ID 514B3E7C
gpgv: Can't check signature: public key not found
dpkg-source: warning: failed to verify signature on ./tree_1.6.0-.dsc
dpkg-source: info: extracting tree in tree-1.6.

dpkg-source: info: unpacking tree_1.6.0-.debian.tar.gz
dpkg-source: info: applying 01_Makefile_fix
dpkg-source: info: applying 02_PATH_MAX

执行完成之后，就会在当前目录生成如下几个文件：

tree-1.6.0
tree_1.6.0-1.dsc
tree_1.6.0-1.debian.tar.gz
tree_1.6.0.orig.tar.gz

其中目录tree-1.6.0中就是想要的tree的源码了，根据其中的提示可以手工编译生成目标机器上的tree命令。
