Description:
Ubuntu has a very friendly message when one types the name of an
executable coming from a package not installed:
"the program fulano can be found in the following packages: * foo * bar
* baz try: apt-get install <package>"
now that we will have the pool channels online, we can leverage them,
and make things friendlier for entry-level users.

this was implemented as part of hack-week:

Sounds usefull to me (but I have to admit more for SLED and openSUSE)
and it does not lok like as if it would make scripts, especially
login/start scripts, slower.

We will add support for the package into bash. We will not maintain the
scout package. That will be done by Vladimir.
#4: Pavol Rusnak (2008-07-23 16:40:56)
Scout is maintained in openSUSE BuildService - home:prusnak:scout
project

#5: Dr. Werner Fink (2008-07-24 16:49:23)
I've added the patch for scout support

+ Werner: could you also add Provides: bash(CommandNotFound) or something
+ similar? So packages could require bash with this feature enabled
