Or not.  They test, and if necessary, fix, your set of installed dependencies,
since the packager who sets them up should know what that is by the time
he or she would be ready to create a package.  They're sort of a build-from-
source version of interpackage dependencies.  IIRC, RT predates repo-based
packaging.
