My naive attemp to find it out would suggest the following for the UserGuide

for x in $(grep '^\\usepackage' UserGuide.tex |sed -e 's/.*{//g'|sed -e 's/}//g'|grep -v 'unicode'); do apt-file search "/$x.sty"|grep '^texlive-latex-extra:'; done
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/units/units.sty
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/esint/esint.sty

and this for EmbeddedObjects

for x in $(grep '^\\usepackage' EmbeddedObjects.tex |sed -e 's/.*{//g'|sed -e 's/}//g'|grep -v 'unicode'); do apt-file search "/$x.sty"|grep '^texlive-latex-extra:'; done
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/rotfloat/rotfloat.sty
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/wrapfig/wrapfig.sty
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/fancybox/fancybox.sty
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/sidecap/sidecap.sty
texlive-latex-extra: /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/multirow/multirow.sty


But this can change at anytime so I'm not sure if that's a path that can
workout in the longterm. Oh and I didn't check for each dependency that -extra
pulls in aswell that might contain something needed aswell. But well that's
only a slight modification of the for loop and maybe some hand filtering.

Still I'm not sure if we should blow up the common LyX install size with
about 100Megs on -doc packages.
