It's in the status file, so, with the grep-dctrl package:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ grep-status -nsInstalled-Size -PX xfree86-common
708
... for example. You could get something like 'dpkg -l' output using
this (very quickly hacked-up) command:
grep-status -nsInstalled-Size,Package -rFInstalled-Size . | \
perl -e 'while(<>) { chomp; print "$_\t" . <>; <>; }' | sort -n
