As a last ressort, you can always consult the search engine at 

http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages (-> Search Package Directories)

This interface will list all dependencies. Even if you don't download
the packages from there (apt is certainly more convenient), it might
be helpfull as a means of orientation, especially if you're still
exploring the load of packages which are available.
