In theory package-get-base.el provides this information. However, I
don't see how to get it from the package-user-interface.
M-x package-get-package-provider , in theory (but not in this case,
because of the problem below).
A second problem is that although many packages list many provided
symbols, eterm only lists 'eterm. This may be a bug?
I think so, since term.el does (provide 'term), that should be listed
in the package index.
