I agree that this is not a show stopper, because %{_datadir}/%{name} is not
exactly forbidden although a different location would be better. For the fact
that the source code cannot be easily changed to accommodate %{_libdir}/%{name}
I regard this issue as done.
If upstream provides the installation in a different location in the future,
this point should be re-considered.
