When in this situation try this:
package provides ^libx.so.x.x.whatever.
The carrot plus trailing dot will search for a pattern within the listing
of the packages within the package database. You might shorten the pattern
for results, though you will have more hits to check.
When libc.so.7 was a miss, I checked libGL.so.1 and made progress.
