# Dear package manager, in what package do we have '['?
tzafrir@frenkel:~$ dpkg -S [
dpkg: [ not found.
tzafrir@frenkel:~$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/[
dpkg: /usr/bin/[ not found.
tzafrir@frenkel:~$ dpkg -S '/usr/bin/\['
coreutils: /usr/bin/[

packages.debian.org:

http://packages.debian.org/coreutils , and check the files list.
Or check in the files search list in http://packages.debian.org/
