It is not possible to evaluate scriptlets for dependencies and pushing that back into rpm. Dependency generators work off of evaluating files to generate dependencies leveraging specific content. Scriptlets generally lack this information. Moreover, attempts to identify programs in shell scripts have been problematic. There was an attempt long ago to make `bash` generate RPM dependencies for shell scripts, but it didn't work very well, and the effort has been largely abandoned since.
