Debian already has RT Linux kernels, but unfortunately only for amd64/x86.

If you want the aptitude interface, but already know what you want and
don't want to manually browse for it, use the visual preview option:

aptitude --visual-preview install build-essential

Also, you can search through automatically packages with the / key.
The search is based on regexes on filenames as well as having options
for searching on other attributes of packages.

aptitude search '?source-package(glibc)'
