Not quite. You actually need:

%{_datadir}/logtail/

This includes the directory and its contents. Using just %{_datadir}/logtail/*
would mean that the package did not own the directory itself, which would be
wrong since none of the package's dependencies own it either.

Similarly you should add:
%dir %{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/
for ownership of this directory. The %dir is needed here because you want to
mark the contents of the directory as %config(noreplace).

That's a matter of style and I would personally prefer the original form.

I wouldn't use "logcheck" as the default group in %defattr as it will make it
the default group for everything, including the binaries, documentation, cron
scripts etc., which is probably not what you want.

I would have your package create and own the /var/lib/logcheck directory rather
than having useradd create it in %pre, so that the directory gets removed if
the package is removed from the system.
