I think his problem is knowing, if the package is in devel.

http://packages.debian.org/stable/allpackages should list the section, 
maybe.

But when looking at that page I found another issue: The links to the 
packages are gone there. Seems, there is not longer shown the html page 
but the text list. The server delivers allpackages.de.txt instead of 
allpagages.de.html for me. Server misconfiguration?

Another idea: How about linking to a page, where users get information 
on searching locally on the disk for a package? I am sure that many 
people do not know about apt-cache, apt-file and other useful utilities.

greetings

Jutta
