The source package (.src.rpm) is here:
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/mirror/fedora/linux/planetccrma/9/SRPMS/qtractor-0.2.1-1.fc9.ccrma.src.rpm

If you install it (rpm -Uvh) the spec file will be located
in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS, you can see the dependencies there (the
BuildRequires lines). 

If you do a "yum install qt4" and you can't find the package you have to
switch to the new repositories and keys. See the link I sent before for
a howto...
