Hi:
Once you've done an apt-get update, you can use the apt-cache program to
look at available package lists. Useful commands are:
apt-cache search <expression> search for packages containing
<expression> in their descriptions. Good to pipe through more
apt-cache show <packagename> List full details for the given package
Do a man apt-cache for more info.
Geoff.
