I'm afraid what you did is what is used to populate sources.b.o.
There are no specific 'script' or procedure to do that.

What are the gotchas you're bumped into?

IIRC, there are a few isues yet with some host-packages that are nmot
downloaded with 'make sources'. Is that your issue?. I think Thomas P.
has a set od chages to fix this issue. Thomas?
