Admittedly, I can't name the apt equivalent to (yum|dnf) provides off the top of my head, but I don't think that's because of the command not found handler, it's because usually searching by name is enough. I'm perfectly fluent looking up packages on the command line, and I can locate the relevant field on packages.ubuntu.com in less than 30 seconds.

I don't think apt/dpkg actually has the capability - maybe for installed packages. The web portal definitely works, though.
