not sure about omega:

$ aptitude search Omega
p    | 1:0.90-pa9-13                   | 323kB  | 0  | omega-rpg
v    | <none>                          |        | 0  | r-omegahat-ggobi
p    | 2007-12ubuntu3.1                | 2665kB | 0  | texlive-omega
p    | 1.0.2-1                         | 260kB  | 0  | xapian-omega
