Bug Description

!info mpfr doesn't give me anything but !info libmpfr1 does. Since Launchpad uses source package names quite extensively and developers normally use them, it would be nice if ubotu knew about them.

ubottu simply uses apt-cache show <package> to gather information on it. So I'm assuming you want some information returned by apt-cache showsrc <package>?
If so, what information would be appropriate here?

Basically similar as for binary packages, maybe with the addition of a list of binary packages if they'll fit (maybe show the first 3-5 or something.
