Either the rpm macros will pick it up or they don't.
Example -
[root at jerusalem CentOS]# rpm -qp --provides
python-sqlite-1.1.7-1.2.1.x86_64.rpm
_sqlite.so()(64bit)
python-sqlite = 1.1.7-1.2.1
The python-sqlite package provides _sqlite.so() - for packages that use
it, they may pick up that it requires _sqlite.so() automatically, so
specifying
Requires: python-sqlite
would be redundant.
