FreshRPMS is using the SPEC files we maintain within RPMforge. But it is 
just a subset.

There is no dependency on other packages except what comes with the 
distribution. At least that's the theory, in practice there could be 
missing dependencies, but the solution is not to find these dependencies 
within other repositories. Reporting them would be the right thing to do 
:)

Kind regards,
