Package: auto-apt (0.3.21+nmu1)

package search by file and on-demand package installation tool

auto-apt checks the file access of programs running within its environments, and if a program tries to access a file known to belong in an uninstalled package, auto-apt will install that package using apt-get. This feature requires apt and sudo to work.

It also provides simple database to search which package contains a requested file.
