To be frank, I'm not sure how packages declare what they provide. org-plus-contrib has this (define-package "org-plus-contrib" "20140526" "Outline-based notes management and organizer" 'nil) While org has that: (define-package "org" "20140526" "Outline-based notes management and organizer" 'nil) All I know is that when I install something like org-reveal: (define-package "ox-reveal" "20140409.929" "reveal.js Presentation Back-End for Org Export Engine" '((org "8.0")) :keywords ("outlines" "hypermedia" "slideshow" "presentation")) (the second line starts with the REQUIREMENTS param of define-package) it goes and installs org, even though I have org-plus-contribs.
