You can search debian at:

Debian GNU/Linux -- Packages|http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages

Use the second search to find the debian package which contains the
library you want. Then install ar in bin*.tgz package from slackware.
Use ar to extract the data.tar.gz files from the packages you download.
Hopefully you know how to proceed from here.
