gwhy has a lot of requires (as automatically determined by the RPM build 
system):

/bin/sh
libatk-1.0.so.0
libc.so.6
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1.2)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3.4)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.4)
libcairo.so.2
libdl.so.2
libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.0)
libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.1)
libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0
libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0
libglib-2.0.so.0
libgmodule-2.0.so.0
libgobject-2.0.so.0
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
libm.so.6
libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.0)

rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rtld(GNU_HASH)
why
zenity

What other ones would it have? There are no packages "tcl" or "tk"... it 
certainly doesn't require "tcllib" and "tklib". Furthermore, gwhy really 
depends on gtk, not tk (which it does indeed appropriately require as above). 
I'm pretty sure rpmbuild indeed saw that gwhy was just a shell script that 
calls gwhy-bin (since running find-requires on just gwhy produces /bin/sh). 
Was there something else you had in mind?
