No. RPM doesn't care about disttag for dependencies unless you actually
specify a dependency using it, e.g.:
Requires: foo = 1.1-2.fc23

As long as SONAMEs match (or actually, as long as Provides: match), the
dependencies are satisfied. There's nothing wrong with having .fc22
packages in F23+ repos.
