man dselectしてこんな記述を
       --admindir <directory>
              Changes the directory where datafiles are  located.
              This  defaults  to /var/lib/dpkg.  Note, that these
              files are  just  some  internal  datafiles,  actual
              Debian packages doesn't have to be located here.

/var/lib/dpkg/availableとか、いろいろファイルがあるので
updateしてひろった情報は、ここにくるのではないですかね？

$ ls  /var/lib/dpkg/
alternatives           lock                   status.yesterday.1.gz
available              methlock               status.yesterday.2.gz
available-old          methods                status.yesterday.3.gz
cmethopt               predep-package         status.yesterday.4.gz
