rpm -q will check for a package of that name installed.  The package
foo might contain the file libfoo.so.  So you could do

% rpm -q foo | grep libfoo

or to find out what package a particular file is from:

% rpm -qf /bin/bash

or to find all files matching a particular pattern and ask rpm about
each of them:

% locate libfoo | xargs rpm -qf

or maybe

% locate libfoo | xargs rpm -qf | sort -u
