Yes, it is solved this way currently:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
    my ( $schema, $proto, $host, $port, $dir, $dist, $components ) = $source =~ m{
        ^
        (\S+)           # deb or deb-src
        \s+
        ([^:\s]+)       # ftp/http/file/cdrom
        ://
        (/?             # file:///
            [^:/\s]+    # host name or path
        )
        (?:
            :(\d+)      # optional port number
        )?
        (?:
            /
            (\S*)       # path on server (or local)
        )?
        \s+
        (\S+)           # distribution
        (?:
            \s+
            (.+)            # components
        )?
    }x;
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thus, it does not recongnize file:/ but file:/// at the moment. It
would be more conform to the sources.list format for file: line if it
would match for file:/path/to/file

Bests,
