That can't be true across the board.  For example compat-libosip2 provides a
shared library that linphone (and other apps) link against.

# rpm -q  compat-libosip2 --provides 
libosip2.so.3  
libosipparser2.so.3  
compat-libosip2 = 2.2.2-16.fc9
# rpm -q --whatrequires libosip2.so.3
compat-libosip2-2.2.2-16.fc9.i386
libeXosip2-3.1.0-1.fc9.i386
linphone-2.1.1-1.fc9.i386
