Well, I was referring to mpi-selector in EPEL. You're not interested in EPEL?
Also, you're not requiring the environment-modules package in Fedora.

OK.

Could you add some comments on the BRs? To me BR emacs-common and gdb are a bit
odd..

According to GCC man page, -fPIC only makes a difference on the m68k, PowerPC
and SPARC (compared to -fpic?). Thus, should you have -fPIC also on ppc
architectures?

Why don't you have --enable-f77 in the configure phase?

Since the package has Java functionality, you must follow the Java Packaging
guidelines:

MUST have: 
BuildRequires: java-devel [>= specific_version] 
BuildRequires:  jpackage-utils
Requires:  java >= specific_version
Requires:  jpackage-utils

Also, in the setup phase, clean out old .jar files:
find -name '*.jar' -o -name '*.class' -exec rm -f '{}' \;

Otherwise the spec file seems quite clean to me. This is really an
embarrassment, having had the package on review for 3 years.
