OK, here's the fishing rod :-) Go, no, *run* and install package "apt-file". Issue apt-file update in a terminal, and then: apt-file search xcolor (or whatever string you come up). Apt-file searches for packages containing files matching the pattern. You can control whether the pattern is interpreted as regex or as a literal (sub)string. > Gcolor2 seems to be the most useful although it doesn't save new > colors to the database.
