Relevant snip from the manpage:
depends <local-opts> pkgspec
This command displays all dependencies matching pkgspec.
<local-opts> is either or both of:
-a, --all-packages search in all available packages (slow)
-d, --direct search direct dependencies only (default)
-D, --indirect search indirect dependencies (very slow)
--depth=n Limit depth of indirect dependency tree to n
levels. Setting --depth=0 is the same as not specifing --indirect.
So "equery depends" expects a package name, not a file name. What
exactly are you trying to do?
