You could try editing the specfile to 'Requires' ?
Thank you and was afraid of that.
I have a specfile (for MythTV) that works in mock under fc25 in builds
for both SL7 and fc25. It's based on one from rpmfusion and includes
the lines
Requires: python-MythTV
%{?fedora:Recommends: mesa-vdpau-drivers}
But that might be using an rpmfusion macro. And of course other
problems might emerge; fc27 is several steps away from el7.

Hi John,
At some point I am going to have to break down and learn
how to make my own RPMs.
What got me here was that "yelp" is installed and I am
being tagged for it being missing. Something else to
learn.
I think the problem is that rpmbuild for el7 doesn't understand
'Recommends:'. As Tom H said, it's new. Iff that's the only problem
you can perhaps just comment out that line - but IIUC you will need to
build a new src.rpm from the edited specfile, and then try to rebuild
from that.
But I suspect that a bare 'Recommends:' implies that no build for el7
from the fc27 srpm has yet succeeded.
I should probably add your "%{?fedora" tag all over the place.
Thank you for the help!
