Bug Description

https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#additional-source-packages-used-to-build-the-binary-built-using is supposed to cause the archive to retain additional versions of source packages, and the kernel team uses it for out-of-tree DKMS source packages. Launchpad doesn't yet honour this, which could cause a GPL compliance problem (or at least the appearance of one; the source packages should be retained by Launchpad either way, if not necessarily published).

I've been designing this in https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HNwxF16tBlh2EjSexihmZj9qP9w5oeGDWF0Fygb8ols.
