Not in all cases: 
I tried to install bonobo-config:
dunadan:/home/kerka# apt-cache search bonobo-config
bonobo-config - The Bonobo Configuration System for GNOME2

When I do:
dunadan:/home/kerka# apt-get -u -t experimental install bonobo-config
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  bonobo-config: Depends: libglib1.3-15 (>= 1.3.15) but it is not
installable
E: Sorry, broken packages
 
I do second attempt:
dunadan:/home/kerka# apt-get -u -t experimental install libglib1.3
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package libglib1.3 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
However the following packages replace it:
  libglib2.0-data
E: Package libglib1.3 has no installation candidate

I have libglib2.0-data installed:
dunadan:/home/kerka# dpkg -l libglib2.0-data
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold

Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err:

||/ Name           Version        Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
ii  libglib2.0-dat 2.0.6-1        Common files for GLib library

What to do now?

My two questions:
1. where can I find missing packages?
2. is anywhere list of all needed packages?

Thanks all for help.
