$ repoquery --provides bind-dyndb-ldap.x86_64 2>/dev/null
bind-dyndb-ldap = 1.1.0-0.14.rc1.fc17
bind-dyndb-ldap(x86-64) = 1.1.0-0.14.rc1.fc17
ldap.so()(64bit)  <-------???

$ repoquery --list bind-dyndb-ldap.x86_64 2>/dev/null
/usr/lib64/bind/ldap.so
...

I came upon this when runnning fedora-review on this package. Now I am
wondering: Is this a packaging problem in bind-dyndb-ldap (i.e. it has
provides for private shared unversioned library) or is it OK? The so
file is outside ldpath so that's not an issue.
