DrRacket will now offer to update your package catalog for you when
there is a missing-module exn and no suggestions (via the check syntax
error message line and always via the error message printout in the
repl). Hopefully that's a bit better than what we had before.

That sounds like a good idea.
I think you want the `pkg-catalog-update-local` function from
`pkg/lib`. I should update the GUI package manager to use that
function, too.
(I think the GUI package manager's implementation was first, and I must
have intended to merge them after creating the variant
Looking at the code, it seems like I'd need to make DrRacket do the
task between lines 314 and 337 in by-list.rkt. I could add a button to
the error message printout that offered to initialize (or maybe
update?) the package table when it gets a exn:missing-module?

I'm not sure either, but it is the exn:missing-module? and
exn:missing-module-accessor functions that are supposed to be
conveying the information. So trying to find a program that should
work with those functions (but doesn't) is probably the place to
start.

Hi all,
I seem to recall that a while ago DrRacket started to suggest packages
to install when you had `require`s that failed to load any modules, but
I can't seem to figure out how to trigger this anymore.
Was this disabled at some point? I see that the code from this commit:
