Sweet. That seems to be a generalisation / implementation of the idea of
grep'ing in a large index file I mentioned earlier.  Odd that it doesn't
update its cache, though:

e...@ron:~$ ls -ltr /var/cache/apt/apt-file
total 27296
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14382660 2008-06-23 15:16 
ron_ftp.us.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_Contents-i386.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13521294 2008-06-26 03:13 
ron_ftp.us.debian.org_debian_dists_testing_Contents-i386.gz
e...@ron:~$ 

But maybe that's just what we get with Debian lenny aka 'testing' being frozen 
all that long.
