"Oh ye of little faith!" (read: Pffft. Troublemaker!)  ;)

If you "dpkg --help" or "man dpkg" you'll find "dpkg -S/--search" and all
the other useful stuff that dpkg does for you.

<flamebait> Remember that dpkg is to rpm as apt is to a paid subscription
service (or AutoRPM if you want, unless you're Conectiva, then you're just
plain sensible). :) </flamebait>
