There is no official way currently. What I do currently is to google to
find out in which package/jar/software this class is included and then
search for this package/jar/software with apt-cache search.

I will think up of a way to setup a service for this. It should be
possible to index all jars we have in debian package and make that index
searchable on some website.

Cheers,

Michael
