I'm a little bit confused, since neither of my Woody nor Sid systems has /usr/include/unix.h. Also, using apt-file I don't see *any* package that has it. > So, now I cant get some stuff to compile due to the header file > being wrong... What stuff?

True enough. > So, I do a: > > dpkg -S unix.h > > And it gives me no results... Well, gives me an auth_unix.h file, > which isnt what I'm looking for... Sometimes this happens because a file (usually a configuration file) is created in a package's post-install step. However, like I said before, I don't see any likely candidates; I'm wondering how this file came to be in the first place. > My question is: If Debian packages are just as good if not better > than Redhat RPM's, then why can I not find out what package owns > that file?
