A small point but Lyx suggests rather than recommends sgml-tools.
I'm unfamiliar with aptitude but it is a little surprising it does not give a
similar output to `dpkg -l sgml-tools', `apt-cache search sgml-tools' or
a package search on Debian's web page.
bash-2.05b$ apt-cache search sgml-tools
linuxdoc-tools - SGML converters for the LinuxDoc DTD only.

/usr/share/doc/tetex-doc/texmf is your rather overwhelming starting
point. Diving into latex/general gets you what you want.
