Sorry, I did not answer you question precisely.

The rpmlib(...) dependencies are part of the rpm implementation, not the rpm package.

You can find out what capabilities are provided by the implementation using --showrc,
which will also display the "features" that are being tracked with rpmlib(...) dependencies.
