When I

apt-get source somepackage

as a regular user, does the system do a signature check on the source
that is downloaded? Where does the signature reside?

Thanks. I can't find this info in any of the man pages.

Yes; in the .dsc file.

A failure to verify the signature will only result in a warning message.
