Hi,

Unlike "apt-get install", I guess that "apt-get source"
does not check if the source is already loaded.

It always has for me[or rather it resumes the download and resuming a 100% download is pretty quick. :)]

Random package for which I already had source:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src$ apt-get source pyvorbis
Reading Package Lists... Done

Need to get 39.8kB of source archives.
Get:1 http://http.us.debian.org unstable/main pyvorbis 1.0-1.2 (dsc) [642B]
Get:2 http://http.us.debian.org unstable/main pyvorbis 1.0-1.2 (tar) [38.1kB]
Get:3 http://http.us.debian.org unstable/main pyvorbis 1.0-1.2 (diff) [985B]
Fetched 1628B in 10s (152B/s)
Skipping unpack of already unpacked source in pyvorbis-1.0

Notice that it only fetched 1628B as opposed to all 39.8kB [1628B==diff+dsc+1B but that may just be a coincidence]
