That's the only important issue. While it is true that the value
can be overridden, most users of the library will not override the
default, so the "default" provided by the library is what will be
used most often in the end. IIUC, libprelude.so has
tls_auth_init_priority() which calls gnutls_priority_init(tlsopts ?: "NORMAL"),
and tls_auth_init_priority() is called in a few places as 
tls_auth_init_priority(NULL), e.g. from tls_auth_connection().
So effectively "NORMAL" is the default. I think it should be changed
to "@SYSTEM".

For a similar case, consider libmicrohttpd. We patched it
[http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/libmicrohttpd.git/tree/gnutls-utilize-system-crypto-policy.patch]
to use @SYSTEM, and all users of libmicrohttpd magically became
compliant with the policy without any further work.

Note: it'd be nicer to include a specific "version", something like
Provides: bundled(gnulib) = 20160508
but if it's hard to determine or unclear or whatever, it's fine as is.

Those same files in libgpg-error sources are quite different. It seems that
libprelude has an independent forked copy, so you *could* fix the address.
But anyway, it doesn't matter much.

I noticed another issue: valgrind is used in tests, but is not listed in
BuildRequires. Unfortunately, valgrind is not available on all architectures.
There's a macro %{valgrind_arches}, but it is only available in rawhide.
That could be used in the future, but for now:
%ifnarch s390
BuildRequires: valgrind
%endif
... and you also have to make sure that the test still run without valgrind.

Oh, I now see that there's a pkg-config file already. So my rant wasn't
necessary. Sorry.
