--- Comment #2 from Michael Schwendt <bugs.michael@xxxxxxx> ---
> Summary: A C library for multiple-precision floating-point computations

The leading "A C" is a example of a summary where the leading article is
superfluous and reduces readability.

> BuildRequires: autoconf libtool gmp-devel

Requiring gmp-devel is a hint that it links with libgmp somehow.

> Requires: gmp >= 4.2.3

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Explicit_Requires


> Requires(post): /sbin/ldconfig
> Requires(postun): /sbin/ldconfig

With the scriptlets running /sbin/ldconfig directly, there are automatic
dependencies on /sbin/ldconfig.


> %package devel
> Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release}

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Requiring_Base_Package


> Requires(post): /sbin/install-info
> Requires(preun): /sbin/install-info

Also see the %post and %preun sections. There are official scripts for a long
time: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Scriptlets#Texinfo


> If you want to develop applications which will use the MPFR library,
> you'll need to install the mpfr-devel package. You'll also need to
> install the mpfr package.

Redundant instructions. mpfr is installed automatically due to dependencies.
