rpmbuild unexpected dependencies

I have created rpm from binary files. When I try rpm -Uvh my_package.rpm there is a dependency problem. Strange thing is that dependencies are not in the Require section of the spec file. It looks as if rpmbuild checks my binary file for dependencies (just like ldd). How to prevent this?

short answer; disable the automatic requirements analysis by putting this in the header of your package specification:

AutoReq: no
