portaudio-19-3.fc8 or portaudio-devel-19-3.fc8 bug?

[Jerry Williams]

I am trying to install crrcsim and it wants libportaudio.so
Under Fedora 7 "rpm -q --whatprovides libportaudio.so" returns
portaudio

When I look in /usr/lib I see:
libportaudio.so -> libportaudio.so.2.0.0
libportaudio.so.2 -> libportaudio.so.2.0.0
libportaudio.so.2.0.0

libportaudio.so belongs to portaudio-devel
libportaudio.so.2 and libportaudio.so.2.0.0 belong to portaudio

"rpm -q --whatprovides libportaudio.so" returns nothing.
"rpm -q --whatprovides libportaudio.so.2" returns portaudio.
"rpm -q --whatprovides libportaudio.so.2.0.0" returns nothing.

If I use --nodeps and install crrcsim it seems to work just fine.

So is this a bug?
Please help me to understand the thinking on how this is either broken or
correct.

Thanks for any help!
Jerry
