Well.. That's odd. OK, maybe libf2c contains some intrinsic Fortran functions,
that are then called in the C code produced by f2c.

Anyway, this means you will have to put in explicit dependencies. Better yet to
version them fully. i.e. the main package has to
 Requires: %{name}-libs = %{version}-%{release}
and the devel package just
 Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release}
which pulls in f2c, which pulls in f2c-libs.
