Also of interest is the apt-cache program from the apt package. When
invoked as apt-cache showpkg package, the program will show details
for package, including reverse depends.
There is, however, apt-cache rdepends, and apt-rdepends (separate
package), and grep-dctrl, which are how I'd go about looking for such
things.
