I forgot to add, if you have problems building it due to dependency issues, just open up the spec file and comment out the appropriate require line.
When an rpm "requires" a specific lib, it is most likely pulled in by rpm's "Automatic Dependencies" checking. You can turn that off, of course, but that could potentially lead to broken dependencies Also, as Philipp mentioned, you could change the links to the GL packages if you build the rpm yourself, but that doesn't help if the rpm comes from somewhere else, like commercial rpms, which you can't rebuild.
