The following works pretty well:
dpkg -l | awk '/^.i/ {print $2}' | xargs apt-cache policy
| awk '/^[a-z0-9.\-]+:/ {pkg=$1}; /\*\*\*/ {OFS="\t"; ver=$2;
getline; print pkg,ver,$2,$3}'
That is all in one line and produces the following output:
acl: 2.2.49-2 http://ftp.de.debian.org squeeze/main
acpi: 1.4-2 http://ftp.de.debian.org squeeze/main
acpi-support: 0.132-2 http://ftp.de.debian.org squeeze/main

You can then use grep to search for whatever you want to search for.
Alternatively you can take a look at apt-listrepository [1], but I
haven't used that and can't comment on its capabilities.
