You asked for it. Debian has an lsdev utility in the sysutils package
in at least the current stable and testing distributions. Here is the
Packages blurb from stable:

Conflicts: bogo, memtest, procinfo
Filename: dists/potato/main/binary-i386/utils/sysutils_1.3.6.1.deb
Size: 28398
MD5sum: b20b508339c812741a505c950bfa7761
Description: Miscellaneous small system utilities.
This is a package incorporating various small utilities which are:
* procinfo - Displays system information from /proc (v16).
* memtest - Test system memory for errors (v1.0.1).
* bogo - Shows the current bogomips rating without rebooting (v1.2).
* tofromdos - Converts DOS <-> Unix text files (v1.4).
Doesn't seem particularly important AFAICT.
