=head1 EXAMPLES

=head2 EXAMPLE: Find the missing package

Assume you have a program B<foo>. When it runs it fails with: I<foo:
error: missing library>. It does not say with file is missing, but you
have a hunch that you just need to install a package - you just do not
know which one.

    tracefile -n -u foo | apt-file -f search -

Here B<ls> tries to find B</usr/include/shisa.h>. If it fails,
B<apt-file> will search for which package it is in:

    tracefile -n -u ls /usr/include/shisa.h | apt-file -f search - |
      grep /usr/include/shisa.h

=head1 REPORTING BUGS
