all,<br />&gt;<br />&gt; how can I list pacgakes available through apt?<br

list&quot;.<br />&gt;<br />&gt; I was looking for the correct package name for
X11 developer libraries<br />&gt; to use with apt-get. Turns out it's
xorg-x11-devel, but how do I find<br />&gt; something like that _quickly_?<br
