Hmm, I don't know this one, there is one in the non-free scilab package,
but maybe that is not what you mean.  What does it do?  I do know
xdpyinfo, which is in xbase-clients.

For questions like this, you ftp to your local debian mirror, go to the
stable (or unstable, if you like living dangerously) directly, and pick
up the Contents-i386.gz (or Contents-alpha.gz or whatever) file.  Then
you do 

zgrep mycommand Contents-i386.gz
or
zgrep '\<mycommand\>' Contents-i386.gz

and you will know in what package the command is.
