don't have that lib.

only:
readelf -s /usr/lib64/libxcb-util.so.0.0.0| grep xcb_atom_get                    
    34: 0000000000002c60    35 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   11 
xcb_atom_get_name_predefi
    55: 0000000000002b60   230 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   11 
xcb_atom_get_predefined

and
equery belongs /usr/lib64/libxcb-util.so.0.0.0
 * Searching for /usr/lib64/libxcb-util.so.0.0.0 ... 
x11-libs/xcb-util-0.3.8 (/usr/lib64/libxcb-util.so.0.0.0)

no libxcb-atom
