Thanks for the feedback.

as you can see in the -4 spec, I manually remove it but have provisions in
place to build a -static subpackage. I think just removing is better in this
case but would like comments.

fixed

(In reply to comment #2)

fixed

(In reply to comment #3)
> Some apps require *.la files for plugins. Is that maybe the case here?
Does not seem so, the plugin still backs up just fine when libbackup.la is not
present on my system.
OTOH, the main jpilot RPM does drop .la files in addition to the .so files

jpilot itself includes backup functionality. The included version requires the
user to explicitly click a 'backup' button whereas the jpilot-backup package
allows setting up rules like 'backup every sync' or 'backup daily'. Hence the
'enhanced'. Would you still like me to drop the word?

> - repeating the summary in the %description IMHO is wasting space 
true, fixed.

> - just wondering: "make install DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT" doesn't work instead
> of  "make prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_prefix}"?
does not seem to work (make install tried to write under / instead of
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT), so I left it as it was.

> - would be nice to split the {build,}requires in multiple lines (one per line)
done
