Following up on DM conversation with Germano, one thing I noticed while building the spec file locally was that the source file in the build environment is not the same as the source defined in the spec file. Unsure if I should raise a new ticket for this one.

Source file specified as SOURCE0:

The delta is the content inside the submodule directory lib/libelectronic-id.

I could not find much on what the expectation is on source trees with submodules.

The .tar.gz in Fedora repository is the same I used in the package review request, which contained the submodule:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2298838#c9

Also all .tar.xz on Github upstream include the submodule.

I don't know why the .tar.gz I used is no longer available on Github, I suppose it has been removed from upstream developer, and the one you can download now is the Github auto-generated, which as every auto-generated .tar.gz does not include submodules

I posted a message in the mailing list to better understand how I should deal with submodules
