RE: finding the right package
I'm not 100% sure on this but i'll give it a shot and suggest something:
apt-cache search <string of text for what you are searching for>

How do you find which package might contain something you need? I need
glib-config-2.0 (so I can configure fribidi, which is needed to compile
abiword from source). I do not know what package to get. Thanks for
any suggestions. PCR
