For example, openssh-server requires "libcrypto.so.2", but doesn't give the full path. You could ask: $ rpm --redhatprovides libcrypto.so.2 to find that openssl-0.9.6b-8 is the package which provides libcrypto.so.2. Incidentally, the way --redhatprovides works is damned sneaky. Check out /usr/lib/rpm/rpmpopt-4.0.4. Cheers, Phil
