$ apt-file search vrms/reasons
bsdgames-nonfree: /usr/share/vrms/reasons/bsdgames-nonfree
cpio-doc: /usr/share/vrms/reasons/cpio-doc
cuneiform-common: /usr/share/vrms/reasons/cuneiform
d1x-rebirth: /usr/share/vrms/reasons/d1x-rebirth
d2x-rebirth: /usr/share/vrms/reasons/d2x-rebirth
nautilus-dropbox: /usr/share/vrms/reasons/nautilus-dropbox
tar-doc: /usr/share/vrms/reasons/tar-doc
