All of these extra requires appear to do nothing at runtime.
Running rpm --query --package rpm/noarch/python3-safeeyes-3.2.0-1.fc44.noarch.rpm --requires gives:

/usr/bin/python3
python(abi) = 3.13
python3.13dist(babel)
python3.13dist(packaging)
python3.13dist(pygobject)
python3.13dist(python-xlib)
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1
rpmlib(PartialHardlinkSets) <= 4.0.4-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rpmlib(PayloadIsZstd) <= 5.4.18-1

These are only the dependencies from %generate_buildrequires, but none of the manually added ones here.

I did not understand. Did you mean, despite adding dependencies in the spec file, they are actually not dependencies of RPM?

Yeah, that's what I meant - and I also don't understand why it doesn't work.
