I followed all the instructions specified in 'https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package' wiki and created a SPEC file. I executed 'rpmbuild' command and was able to build the RPM. But when I try to install the generated RPM, I get weird errors.

Those "random generated numbers" are debuginfo file names. How they end 
up in your packages dependencies... I cannot even begin to guess.

If you can put the spec (or for added bonus, entire src.rpm) somewhere 
we can try to figure out what the problem is.
