The RPM spec file, "rosegarden.spec.in" has several lines starting with "BuildRequires:" to give the packager an error if the required RPM packages for building Rosegarden aren't installed. The runtime required linked libraries are automatically detected and included in the binary RPM, but we can include a "Requires:" section with all the extra packages for the helper scripts, as kdialog, xdialog, twig... The problem is that Fedora, Suse and Mandrake, using all of them RPM packages, have different package names.
