Seems to do a search more intelligently but with package names, and
only when the match is close enough:


# aptitude install amanda-c
Couldn't find package "amanda-c".  However, the following
packages contain "amanda-c" in their name:
  amanda-client amanda-client:i386 amanda-common amanda-common:i386
Couldn't find package "amanda-c".  However, the following
packages contain "amanda-c" in their name:
  amanda-client amanda-client:i386 amanda-common amanda-common:i386
