Package: dpkg
Version: 1.20.9
Severity: bug

In Debian Bullseye dpkg-deb returns nothing when asked for some 'source:*' field, even if .deb file provides the package that is already installed.

At the same time, dpkg-query output is OK.

Logs from Debian Bullseye chroot:

```
(chr-bullseye-amd64)ubely:~$ sudo dpkg -l | grep "ca-certificates"
ii ca-certificates 20210119 all Common CA certificates (chr-bullseye-amd64)ubely:~$ dpkg-deb --show --showformat '${Package}' /var/ cache/apt/archives/ca-certificates_20210119_all.deb; echo

Under Debign Buster everything is OK:

Bug reports should be directed to [email protected], or you could
use reportbug which should manage all this for you.

(I'll probably file a report out of this later today.)

It looks like this is a regression from the fix for #972580. I'll fix
this a queue it for the next unstable and stable versions.

Thanks,

If you could deal with it quickly, please make the report. I've never used `reportbug` tool before, so it can take me some time to figure out how to do it in proper way.
