Bug 430859

The place of the "./configure" line is in %build, not in %prep, and unless there
is a very good reason to not do it, it should probably be replaced with
"%configure <any needed parameters>"

Suggestions:-
   Apply following patch which resolves
1) compiler flags not honored issue
2) remove unneeded "make install" call
3) remove unnecessary INSTALL file 

==============================================================================
 %prep
-%setup -q -n %{name}-0.4b
-./configure --libdir=%{_libdir}
+%setup -q -n %{name}-0.4b

 %build
-#nothing to build
+./configure --libdir=%{_libdir} --prefix=%{_prefix}
+%{__make} CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" %{?_smp_mflags}

 %install
 rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
 mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_bindir}
 mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_mandir}/man1
-make install DESTDIR=%{buildroot}
-cp -p src/%{name} $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_bindir}
-cp -p src/%{name}.1 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_mandir}/man1
+install -p -m755 src/%{name} $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_bindir}
+install -p -m644 src/%{name}.1 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_mandir}/man1

 %clean
 rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT

 %files

=============================================================================

When I tried to create patch I got some encoding issue to include pl language
description to be included in patch so pasting here directly.

oh yes. Change ./configure  to %configure in above patch

Fixed.

Thanks for review!

Sorry for my mistake.

Nice. You got better SPEC than what I suggested based on your initial SPEC.
But I see that your SPEC in SRPM still contains INSTALL file
Also, I confused on bloc word in changelog. You can use section word instead of
that.
 

Fixed.

Some pedantic issue:

You are using $RPM_BUILD_ROOT and %{buildroot}:

rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
make install DESTDIR=%{buildroot}

it's the same thing, use pick one and use that.

There are no make step %build, it that correct?

Fixed.

SRPM URL: http://kurzawa.nonlogic.org/rpm/netmonitor/netmonitor-0.5-4.fc8.src.rpm

I think here is nothing to build.

README clearly suggests that 
To compile netmon type the following command
./configure
./make
./make install


Add make command to build section
make %{?_smp_mflags}

Fixed.

More pedantic things:

if you change make install line to

make install DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT INSTALL="%{__install} -p"

the timestamps will be preserved (which is good thing).
