Just a brief look at the spec file (no full review):


> Source0:	http://downloads.sourceforge.net/cprops/libcprops-0.1.8.tar.bz2

Nowadays when there are tools to parse a spec file in order to retrieve a
download URL, it isn't beneficial anymore to hardcode the version number. It's
more convenient and less error-prone to use %{version} instead.  Occasionally,
a packager updates just the "Version:" tag to 0.1.9 and that works accidentally
if the old tarball is still available.

> %files devel
> %defattr(-,root,root,-)
> %doc %{_mandir}/man3/*

Files below %_mandir are %doc by default.

> %dir %{_includedir}/cprops/
> %{_includedir}/cprops/*

Since the '*' wildcard catches all files, you could replace the two lines with
just

  %{_includedir}/cprops/

which includes the directory and its contents. The trailing slash is optional
and just for increased readability. To make it more explicit that the entry is
a directory tree and not a single file.
