I would say like "if you don't know how your > spec works, it feels messy, hard to understand -- it needs cleanup" 😉 Perhaps a more automated way to check would be to have a script that checks for certain deprecated syntax in a RPM spec? For example, I imagine specs with a "defattr" in their files section likely need to be cleaned up. Or a Group tag. Or no %license macro. This suggests that the package probably needs to be modernized and may have other things that need to be cleaned up.
