--- Comment #1 from Michael Schwendt <bugs.michael@xxxxxxx> ---
Small as it may be, but there are still some relevant things in the guidelines:


> Name:          vrms-rpm
>
> %description
> vrms-rpm reports nonfree packages installed on the system.

Explaining in the package description what "vrms" means would be good. Is it
based one "Virtual Richard M. Stallman"?

> install -m 755 %{_builddir}/%{name}-%{version}/vrms-rpm.sh %{buildroot}%{_bindir}/vrms-rpm
> install -m 644 %{_builddir}/%{name}-%{version}/vrms-rpm.man %{buildroot}%{_mandir}/man1/vrms-rpm.1

Examine the rpmbuild build output and notice that at the start of every main
spec file section, such as %prep, %build, %install, %clean, rpmbuild enters the
builddir automatically. If it doesn't, adjust the %setup macro in the %prep
section appropriately. It is not necessary to specify the full source path like
you've done it here.


> %files
> %{_mandir}/man1/vrms-rpm.1.gz

The more flexible notation for manual pages is 

  %{_mandir}/man1/vrms-rpm.1*

to cover any compressor and even disabled compression.
