debian/pool/main/([a-z]|lib[a-z])/<source name/
Like for ifupdown go to:
debian/pool/main/i/ifupdown/
and for libc6 go to:
debian/pool/main/glibc/
and for libxml2 go to (note the "lib" prefix):
debian/pool/main/libx/libxml2/
In each of these directories you will see all the source sets available
(.dsc, .diff.gz, .orig.tar.gz) and all deb's for each arch.
