I only have main on my apt.list files.

Is there a way to look for a package in other sections? Like apt search --section contrib scrcpy?

And, since we’re at it… in other releases as well?..

    I can do something like this:

    [\ #84]  apt-cache policy scrcpy
    scrcpy:
      Installed: (none)
      Candidate: 1.25-1
      Version table:
         1.25-1 500
            500 http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages
    

    And it tells me that, for me, scrcpy is available from the main repository in unstable. Not sure how to find a package if it isn’t in one of your sources. I guess you could search for the package at https://packages.debian.org/index.
