Thx for your preliminary review.

I can add a comment, why there is no .desktop file. It does not make sense to
have one, because dzen2 needs to get data from stdin, which cannot be passed if
it is run from a .desktop file.

I do not use Prefix: /usr in the spec. This would be a Tag like "Name: dzen2"
or "Version 0.8.5" in the beginning of the spec file.

I am very sure that prefix is needed at least in %install, because it does not
use any special build system like autotools oder cmake. There the path is
passed to the makefiles using the %configure or %cmake macro. But here only
plain make files are used.
