How do you find which package contains a file you need to install? The dpkg manual page says that "dpkg -S" searches installed packages. That has its uses--but it's useless for finding which package you need to install to get a specific file.
Is there a convenient/standard way to search uninstalled packages (.deb files) for file names? Also, is there a way to search on the description text of packages?
