ogley@riggwelter:~> rpm -q --whatprovides libots-1.so.0
libgnomedb-2.so.1
ots-0.4.2-100.SuSE.ulb.1
libgnomedb-1.1.99-100.SuSE.ulb.1

Both of which are available from the same directory as the AbiWord
package.

And that's part of what APT does.

Eg: if you use apt to install package foo, and it depends on bar, apt
will also install bar.

If bar depends on baz, apt will also install baz, etc etc...

If any of those packages involve uninstalling something you have
installed already, apt will ask you first :)
