Well, there are more reasons for defining macros than solely reducing the
number of keystrokes. Normally I use %{name} e.g. for the Url and Source tags, 
but in case of python packages %{name} doesn't work because of the leading
'python-', that's why there is %{srcname}.

Anyway, I removed %{srcname} here.

Thanks for the hint. Updating the package indeed simplified packaging a bit,
because upstream made some efforts towards a clean install using setuptools.

The specfile now has a more detailed list wrt licensing.
