  The package names present in Requires and BuildRequires depend on the 
distribution for which you are building.

  That is why if you want to port some rpm spec from Mandriva to Fedora, or 
the other way around, you have to change those names (and eventually delete 
and/or add others).

  So it is not possible to use the original src.rpm unchanged, that was the 
point, I think. :-)
