Bug description:
The default sources.list file has source packages enabled by default,
this is bad for the average user (especially those on modems) because
they are very unlikely to use source packages, however they will still
have the download overhead of the packages list.
For most people the deb-src lines could simply be commented out by
default.
(Bug reported at the behest of Robert Collins)
Implementing this would probably invalidate bug 301602. See also bug
987264.
