Hop on over to http://packages.debian.org and at the bottom of that page 
you will find two search engines.

The first allows you to search for specific package names, and will tell
you which distribution the package is in.  The second will allow you
to search for indivual file names and will tell you exactly which
Debian packages contain the file.
