* Dosemu 1.4.0 (1.4.0 is the version you declared) has already been released.
So the one you are packaging is a post-release snapshot version and it must
follow this guideline:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Snapshot_packages

Therefore 1868svn in the release tag is not acceptable. Release Tag for
Post-Release Snapshot Packages is  %{X}.%{alphatag}. In this syntax, %{X} is
the release number increment and %{alphatag} is the checkout string.

* You are still not updating the changelog after each release. This is wrong. I
already told you. In this way we cannot read the history of the package.

* desktop-file-install \
  --vendor=fedora \
  --dir=${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{_datadir}/applications \
  %{SOURCE2}

You must not use a vendor. Please read:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/TomCallaway/DesktopFileVendor

* Categories=System;Emulator;

The Categories in the desktop file should be changed to "Game;Emulator;". This
is what other emulators use.

* Source:  %{name}-%{version}.tgz
Source1:  %{name}-freedos-bin.tgz

Source is missing full URL (which is OK because this is a snapshot package) but
you are not following the guidelines on how to create the snapshot.

Full URL for Source1 is missing.

More info about both issues here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/SourceURL

* BuildRequires:  binutils

This is not required. This dependency is already pulled in by default.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Exceptions_2

* BuildRequires:  bison flex

For constituency with other BR's, please split the above in two lines.

* You are still not following the guidelines about licensing. There are parts
that are not covered by the GPL. You must identify those parts and understand
under what licences they are.

After that you must update the License tag accordingly.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/LicensingGuidelines#Multiple_Licensing_Scenarios

* I cannot build the rpm ATM, but it seems to me that the following problems
where not addressed:

- RPM_OPT_FLAGS are not used. 

- Text files are not UTF-8.
