Hi all,
This page does give some info. about the ubuntu repo's as well as how
to do it (similar to Malte's approach)
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
but is silent mostly about the source code part. I am sorry I dunno
how they do things today (as I'm more now into Debian.)
I do remember vaguely doing something like
$ sudo apt-get build-dep application-name
The first one will download and build all the dependencies which are
needed for the app. to build. (Build dependencies are/maybe different
from apps. needed while running. Usually they used to include the run
dependencies + some which are needed only while building.)
$ sudo apt-get source application-name
It would get the source-code
and then finally do ./configure, make and make install or whatever the
compilation way it was.
This was few years ago, so dunno if the same process or has changed or
not. Not a ubuntu user anymore.
