It is always frustrating me that most packagers for RH generally don't put
BuildRequires: tag into the spec thus making rebuild on different host
than their own a bit a 'Guessing game'. Could you please run something
like buildreq from ALT's rpm-utils?

rsync://rsync.altlinux.org::ALTLinux/Sisyphus/files/SRPMS/rpm-utils-0.6.12-alt1.src.rpm

It runs rpmbuild under ptrace and then finds out which files were accessed
during build and to which packages they belong to, and then writes
BuildRequires: tag with found values to spec file. While those values need
to re-checked manualy to make sure that nothing wrong leaked, it greatly
simplifies the process.
