$ rpm -q --provides readline
libhistory.so.4.1
libreadline.so.4.1
readline = 4.1-9

$ rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/libreadline.so.4
readline-4.1-9

What is the difference between a package's "virtual capabilities"
and its normal "capabilities"? libreadline.so.4 is just a soft link
to libreadline.so.4.1. How's this dependency fun to be interpreted?
