That's a useful tool, thanks. It doesn't take package names, it takes
binary program names, or more specifically, manual page names. So it
works if the binary program name is in common with the package, but not
otherwise, and not if there is no manpage for a program (which is a
Debian policy violation, ยง12.1)
