Thanks Mathieu, I am a bit unclear on some points.

I always assumed the License: tag was about the overall license of the shipped
binary, and not the individual licenses of source files inside the package.
For example, GPLv2+, LGLPv2+ and MIT can be used together in a GPLv2-licensed
binary (not sure the same applies to CC licenses though).
I changed the spec file to your suggestion anyway.

I did the former; the latter is not possible for this package, since there's no
C binary to statically link the library to.

Yeah; right now I don't think it's useful to split any noarch part out of the
package.

Updated spec/SRPM for review at the same location.
