You can find out which package owns a given file in the filesystem
using:
$ dpkg -S /etc/init.d/apache2
apache2.2-common: /etc/init.d/apache2
or:
$ apt-file search /etc/init.d/apache2
apache2.2-common: /etc/init.d/apache2
(dpkg is only going to work with packages you have ever installed)
Cheers,
Andy
