So what? In the first sentence quoted, "in Debian" is clearly not meant
in that sense. Still a package named agrep is in Debian's non-free
repository, can be installed via the debian-package management tools,
can probably be found on some CD's named "Debian", is covered by the BTS
and so on.

So, is this program the same as the one referred to in the subject?
