Sounds quite nice...

But, apt-cache isn't yet finished there. You can also run

apt-cache show gnomeicu

which presents you lots of details about the one package with this name:
- dependencies
- version
- architecture
- size
- md5sum
and last but most important
- A description of what the program is about

is there something like that for FreeBSD, too?
