No.  From 'man rpm':
   --whatrequires CAPABILITY
     Query all packages that require CAPABILITY for proper functioning.

The arguments to whatrequires aren't package names, they're capabilities 
(which *may* be a package name).

Instead try:
rpm -qv --whatrequires libmapi libzeitgeist $(rpm -q --provides libmapi 
libzeitgeist | cut -f1 -d' ')
