I am not quite sure what is broken, and I am not sure what this file
is meant to look like, but my "available" file (on at least 3 systems I looked into)
does not have any line starting with "Status:".

The status file does have such fields, and in fact your output looks 
more like my :

$ head status
Package: telnet
Status: install ok installed
Priority: standard
Section: net
Installed-Size: 204
Maintainer: Herbert Xu <herbert@debian.org>
Source: netkit-telnet
Version: 0.17-16
Replaces: netstd
Provides: telnet-client

rather than:

$ head available
Package: telnet
Priority: standard
Section: net
Installed-Size: 204
Maintainer: Herbert Xu <herbert@debian.org>
Architecture: i386
Source: netkit-telnet
Version: 0.17-16
Replaces: netstd
Provides: telnet-client
