Go to the Computer menu, then to System Configuration, then to the
Synaptic Package Manager.
When it's opened up go to Settings and then to Repositries, in the
window that opens up there's a list if sources, some of them appear to
be greyed out. Check the ones with "deb" in the name (not the ones with
"deb-src" and then click OK then click on the Refresh button in the top
left of the Synaptic tool bar. This will then download the lists of
available packages. The you can find the one you're after.

Hope this helps.

regards

David
