That is not always (usually?) how RPMs work. The dependency pieces of
RPM do not automatically include every possible file within them, or
even all libraries, as things provided. Instead programmers should be
looking for what I am guessing are more like symbols of packages (that
may be the wrong word/idea, but it’s something that corresponds to the
content of the file and not the file name itself). For example:

Code:

ab@mybox0:~/Desktop> rpm -q --provides libSDL-1_2-0-1.2.14-17.1.2.x86_64
SDL = 1.2.14
libSDL-1.2.so.0()(64bit)
libSDL-1_2-0 = 1.2.14-17.1.2
libSDL-1_2-0(x86-64) = 1.2.14-17.1.2

As you can see above the libSDL-1_2-0-1.2.14-17.1.2.x86_64 package
provides features that are SDL-related, including version information.
Packages which depend on this RPM should check for THESE dependencies,
not necessarily /usr/lib64/libSDL-1.2.so.0.11.3 or
/usr/lib64/libSDL-1.2.so.0 as doing so would probably be extraordinarily
painful.

Good luck.
