I had to move the 'showsrc' line to above the 'show' line for «apt
showsrc <TAB>» to work.  Is this expected, or a bug in _apt_arguments
or _regex_arguments?

According to your reference, source|build-dep|showsrc|policy should
complete both binary package names and source package names.  It would
be nice to add support for the latter

Thanks for the patch.  Will commit once the show/showsrc issue is
clarified.

Cheers,
