You might want to use http://packages.ubuntu.com where you can search
and finally browse packages, changelogs and so on.

There are no rpms for Debian based disros like Ubuntu, they use .deb
packages and tools like apt-get, aptitude, dselect, dpkg, ...

You'll have to ;-))

.deb is the best part of Debian based distros, therefore Ubuntu will
never switch to that rpm crap. You'll rather see rpm creator RedHat
switch to .deb ;->>

But, all major .deb tools should be available for .rpm systems (like
there are rpm tools for .deb systems).
And there are also several package conversion tools, e.g. alien.
