the first is listed.

+As all Contents files are shipped compressed, the best way to search quickly
+for a file is with the Unix `zgrep' utility, as in:

This list contains files in all packages, even though not all of the
packages are installed on an actual system at once. If you want to
find out which packages on an installed Debian system provide a
particular file, you can use `dpkg --search <filename>':
- $ dpkg --search /usr/bin/dselect
- dpkg: /usr/bin/dselect
+ $ dpkg --search apt-get
+ apt: /usr/bin/apt-get
