The reason I asked is because, while it's easy to find a file if one knows the package, it's hard to find the package just knowing the file.
It is not sooo hard. For example if I want to find the package providing
/opt/trinity/lib/libkmilo.so.1
I would
$ dpkg -S /opt/trinity/lib/libkmilo.so.1 kmilo-trinity: /opt/trinity/lib/libkmilo.so.1
The main problem is to know where to look for.
Also note that the legacy package is to be used only for specific models and can cause issues. I wouldn't use it unless I have some of the specified models.
apt-cache show kmilo-legacy-trinity ... In Debian the intention is that all laptops work with the generic kmilo plugin, if you need this package please file a bug. . ...
