How about:
$ sudo apt-get source hello
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list
E: Type "add-apt-repository sources" to do this automatically for you.
$ sudo add-apt-repository sources
deb-src lines have been added to your sources.list.
Now type "apt-get update", and then "apt-get source ..." will work.
$ sudo apt-get update
(...)
$ sudo apt-get source hello
(works)
To do this, we'd need to patch apt to add the second error line, and
implement "sources" to add-apt-repository.
