If you did not want any deps then all you had to do was:

%{!?disable_auto_requires: %define disable_auto_requires 0}
to
%{!?disable_auto_requires: %define disable_auto_requires 1}

in the spec file if you got the srpm from the open-mpi.org site.  Which
leads to this being changed.

%if %{disable_auto_requires}
AutoReq: no
%endif
