Well, would you again try to follow lib skeleton spec file again?

- The ELF shared library (usually libXXXX.so.X.X) and its ldconfig
  symlink (usually libXXXXX.so.X) must not be in -devel subpackage.
  Only the symlink used for linkage (libXXXX.so) should be in
  -devel subpackage.

- pkgconfig .pc file should not be deleted and should be included
  in -devel subpackage. Then -devel subpackage should
  have "Requires: pkgconfig" (please check 
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ReviewGuidelines)

Also:
- Please make Summary a bit more verbose. the summary "dot.conf" 
  is not useful.

- I recommend to use %{name} and %{version} in Source0 URL.
  In this way you don't have to modify Source0 when the version
  of the tarball is upgraded.

- I recommend to use
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
make install DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT INSTALL="install -p"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
  to keep timestamps on installed files. This method usually
  works for recent autotool-based Makefiles.

- The file "INSTALL" is usually for people who want to compile
  and install the package by themselves and is not needed for people
  who use rpm.

- For directory ownership issue of %{_datadir}/aclocal and for
  usability, I recommend to add "Requires: automake" to -devel
  subpackage (not BuildRequires).

- For %{_bindir}/dotconf-config (in the source tarball it was
  dotconf-config.in), @libdir@ is expanded as /usr/lib on 32bits
  machine but /usr/lib64 on 64bits machine on Fedora.

  This means that /usr/bin/dotconf-config differs between
  on 32 bits machine and on 64 bits machine. Currently Fedora
  does not allow this type of multilib conflicts for -devel
  subpackage.

You can use "rpmlint" (in rpmlint rpm) to detect some generic
issues on your rpms. For example of a library rpm,
you can check:
