Package: debian-security-support
Version: 1:12+2025.05.10
Severity: important

... if a binary package containing the source package's name is not
installed.

Example, if I manually install gpgv1 on a bookworm clean environment,
check-security-support reports nothing:

dpkg -l gpgv1:

    ii  gpgv1          1.4.23-1.1+b1 amd64        GNU privacy guard - signature 
verification tool (deprecated "classic" version)

Installing gnupg1 (or only gnupg1-l10n) makes check-security-support to
report the relevant packages, including gpgv1:

    Limited security support for one or more packages

    Unfortunately, it has been necessary to limit security support for some
    packages.

    The following packages found on this system are affected by this:

    * Source:gnupg1
