when apt grants Release file information?



Dear Debian Gurus,

To make story short: I'm apt-src some of the packages with patches I
need, then I install them into local repository which resides as another
component in debian mirror:
deb file:/net/debmirror/share/debmirror/debian/ sid main contrib non-free rumba

I placed Release file into 
debian/dists/unstable/rumba/binary-i386
which contains:
Components: rumba
Date: Tue, 05 Apr 2005 15:50:43 UTC
Description: Packages packaged/compiled at RUMBA Labs
Label: rumbarep
Origin: rumba
Suite: unstable

now when I try to pin package in /etc/apt/preferences like
Package: sip4
Pin: release l=rumbarep
Pin-Priority: 1001

it doesn't do any good:
root@ravana[2] /etc/cfengine/files>strace -fF -o /tmp/11 apt-get -V install --reinstall --print-uris sip4
Reading Package Lists... Done

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
'file:/net/debmirror/share/debmirror/debian/pool/main/s/sip4-qt3/sip4_4.2.1-1_i386.deb' sip4_4.2.1-1_i386.deb 153986 9a03f43005cd3c73b472c1803f962e75


in the strace file -- there is no line about reading Release files
for repositories... so when does it really grants all Release files
information???

Thank you in advance

P.S. please CC to me plz plz
