While build requirements are indeed not stored in the final RPM (as jsbillings pointed out) dnf was improved over the last years so you can actually query build requirements now.
dnf repoquery --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=*-source --arch=src --whatrequires <provide>

Probably your package Database-devel provides Database-devel. You can check this like this:
rpm -q Database-devel --provides
it should say something like this:
Database-devel = 2.0.0-0

Database-devel

Wow, thanks:
In Fedora 31 Server I tried KDE, I tried cinnamon, all in su - user mode. Then I searched and found this post: groupinstall in su - user mode

Given the lack of mutual dependencies, which is guaranteed, the following algorithm will yield the minimal set:
for each package in the list, list all of its requirements (rpm -qR foo)
for each package in the requirements, remove it from the list if it’s present
Listing foo’s requirements yields baz (presumably among others), and listing baz’s requirements ...
