debian reverse depends shows 354 packages.
$ apt-cache rdepends libgnutls30 | grep -vc ^lib
354
$
$ apt-cache rdepends libgnutls30 | grep -Evc '^ lib'
258
$
$ apt-cache rdepends libgnutls30 | grep -Ev '^ lib' | awk -F- '{print $1 }' | sort -u | wc
141 142 1337
$
Here are some from that list:
telepathy, weechat, vlc, wget, rsyslog, abiword, cups, emacs
