Why? It is allready set to that exact value?

I disagree. Doing the build in %install is messy and deserves a comment.
You should try to do your best such that anybody looking at your spec
can understand immediately what you are doing. Doing comments for non
standard build procedures is important.

Not completely. I still see some issues with the spec file:

* executables are compiled as part of %install and not %build
* man pages are not installed in %{_mandir}, libs are not
  in %{_libdir}, headers are not in %{_includedir}
* files compiled with shared libs flags (-fPIC) are used for 
  static libraries.
