Bug Description

I ran prevu texlive-common once and it failed (needed tex-common)
So I ran prevu tex-common, than prevu texlive-common again. prevu retrieved the same source package it retrieved before.

expected behavior: behave like apt, use the source that it should have cached previously.

Prevu uses the 'apt-get source' command to get source packages, and apt does not cache apt-get source's results.

If you sense that you need to use a package more than once, do an apt-get source into a temporary directory and manually issue prevu on that package.

Changed in prevu:
