I grab the Contents.i386.gz file (obviously use the correct arch for your system). Then do something like: zgrep 'libXt.so.6' Contentsr-i386.gz usr/X11R6/lib/debug/libXt.so.6 devel/xlibs-dbg usr/X11R6/lib/debug/libXt.so.6.0 devel/xlibs-dbg usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 libs/xlibs usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6.0 libs/xlibs usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXt.so.6 oldlibs/xlib6 usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXt.so.6.0 oldlibs/xlib6 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^ full paths to matches packages. so in your case i'd "apt-get install xlibs" and that should do it. Other utils like apt-search can also help read the man pages on that tho.
