Please don't add a buildrequires on fam-devel, instead I think you need a
kdelibs-devel, which should pull in all the rest ...
BTW, please replace Copyright with License, use macros wherever possible
(%_bindir instead of /usr/bin, %_datadir instead of /usr/share, %_prefix
instead of /usr. Also, run rpmlint on your packages, which is also going
to ask you to add --libdir=%{_libdir} to your configure line.
Of course, if you haven't read the Mandrake RPM Howto, you may want to do
so, even if it is a little out of date. Either install the mdk-rpm-howto
package, or consult the version on the wiki.
Or, if you would prefer someone else to maintain the rpm, shout, I am sure
someone can help (if you would prefer to spend the time hacking source
instead of spec files).
