Done.

Done.

Yes. This package can be compiled as bundled with aw-server-rust (for
convenience) 
or as a watcher to aw-server-rust. I just use the second option, so I believe
only some interface parts are needed.

Done with the virtual Provides.

Not that I know of. The activitywatch app is distributed as a bundle (aw-server
included) from https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch at
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/activitywatch-bin
There was an idea at
https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/issues/92#issuecomment-1583938452
 
to merge the watcher into that bundle, but it didn't happen. The development in
general slowed down though.
I added a comment about that to the SPEC file.

Is the SPEC file OK now?
