Comment(by gnu):

 Ubuntu has a great hook in the bash "no such command" processor that looks
 up the command in the deb database and tells you what "apt-get install"
 command to run to get the command you tried to run.

 (We could switch from RPM's to debs, then this would work out of the box.
 :-)
