The Debian archive is admirably vast. Out of this free software sea, you can usually fish the one sarge package you need with debram. Debram sorts sarge's 14,000+ packages into broad classes, then divides and redivides them into 470 finer, more specific branches. Debram is part of the Debtags project.
