Just for the Debianites who don't know this already:

On most Debian mirrors you will find a Contents-i386.gz file, which gives
the same functionality:

live:~# zgrep patch Contents-i386.gz |grep bin
[...]
usr/bin/patch                                           utils/patch

Which tells us /usr/bin/patch is found in the utils/patch_*.deb package.
