aptitude search \!~i~sdoc only lists 4 packages.
surely main of sarge has far more than that.

to list desired packages.

Can dpkg do that?
apt-cache search package_name
or
apt-get install [tab][tab]
will ask you to show all available packages in the repositories pointed by

P.S. Try to reply at the bot
I remember, dselect can show available packages.
