How to determine which package has a specific library?

and nearly immediately got two useful answers:
1.) a file/library which is already installed
grep for that file/library in the "install database"
/var/sadm/install/contents
2.) a file/library which is not yet installed
grep for that file/library on the Solaris-CD under Solaris2*/Product
something like grep library.a */pkgmap
Both of these methods show me that i have to install SUNWlibC in my
case with libdemangle.so.1
