The general answer is to use this tool:
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages.en.html

Just give the file name in the last search area (go down to the end of 
the page) and you'll get packages providing the file.

Ex: 
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=X11%2FXlib.h&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=stable&arch=i386

                         The README file said
              "Requires Windows 95, NT 4.0, or better."
                    So... I installed it on Linux!
