My idea was to have one. The one I sent seems different from everything
but it is just because is a single one for both MingW and not MingW, if
you remove the MingW part is (except the changelog) exactly the same as
Fedora version.
As discussed on IRC probably the packager could want to add some
patches or other minor changes so it's reasonable if the spec get
changed but I would try to keep it in sync with the upstream one.
I should probably separate and have an initial spec with just Fedora
version and then add (if agreed) the MingW part.

I also wanted to know what people think about having a spec file
upstream as all our project don't have it.
