$ dpkg -s tgif
to see the status. There is a line beginning with "Maintaoner: "
There you can look for the mail address of package maintainer.
Ups! You have remuved tgif, right? Then do:
$ grep -n 'Package: tgif' /var/lib/dpkg/available
You will get e line like
12554 Package: tgif...............
Then
$ vi +12554 /var/lib/dpkg/available
to look for package infos.
