I had that program running on Lindows and then Debian. Debian has it by default. Also in KDE there is a synaptic type program I forget the name(Kget I think). I like synaptic's find much better than KDE's, but KDE's catagorizes everything, like audio, libs, games, entertainment, and such. KDE's look a littler better and it also has a tab that lets you see what is installed and what's new. Now if they'd just fix that darn search.

Nice repository. As an addition to this, running
Code:
apt-get install synaptic
will also install it.

But you can never have too many repositories ........
