understanding userspace includes

I would like to ask a couple more questions please.

I undestand the libusb nuance and was able to go from usb.h to libusb.a 
relatively easily.

However, when I try what should be a simpler case, that of string.h, I cannot 
find a string.o in libc.so. I think this is a whole in my education more then 
anything else.

I would appreciate a bit more tutelage on going from an arbitrary include file 
in /usr/include and figuring out how to then find the shared object library 
that includes the executable for a particular header include file.

Thanks to Devon, I think I get the recipe to go from a shared object and 
figure out the source rpm, but I am missing the step before this.

With Respect, Charles Krinke
