There is a "Requires" section on the web page for each RPM. 
Clicking on an item takes you to the list of packages which
provide that item.

So instead of saying package A depends on package B, it says,
package A depends on libfoo, which is provided by the package
foo1 and foo2. So you can get A+foo1 or A+foo2 depending on
what you want to accomplish.
