That's not what I had in mind. I was asking if Fink provides a tool or a "feature" of its own wich which end-users can search globally, i.e., ALL .deb packages, for a file/module they specify (hopefully, with regular expressions), and tell them which package(s) contain the target file/module, if any.
That's dpkg -S. Its kinda slow though and only works with packages that are already installed.

% dpkg -S /sw/bin/labltk
ocaml: /sw/bin/labltk

-Ben
