And to add a comment, since I just noticed that in the subject
you refer to F8 packages while in the message your refer to F7:

Only "rpm -q --whatprovides libportaudio.so.2" is a _valid_ query,
since "libportaudio.so.2" is the library's soname, whereas the other
two are not. They are just files or symlinks, which are provided via
the filelist, so you would need to change the queries to

  rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/libportaudio.so
  rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/libportaudio.so.2
  rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/libportaudio.so.2.0.0

if you want to cover the files,
and only for the soname:

  rpm -q --whatprovides libportaudio.so.2
