Description:
googler is a power tool to Google (Web & News) and Google Site Search 
from the command-line. It shows the title, URL and abstract for each result, 
which can be directly opened in a browser from the terminal. Results are 
fetched in pages (with page navigation). Supports sequential searches 
in a single googler instance.

googler was initially written to cater to headless servers without X. You can 
integrate it with a text-based browser. However, it has grown into a very handy 
and flexible utility that delivers much more. For example, fetch any number of 
results or start anywhere, limit search by any duration, define aliases to 
google search any number of websites, switch domains easily... all of this 
in a very clean interface without ads or stray URLs. The shell completion 
scripts make sure you don't need to remember any options.

Comment 1 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2018-02-24 22:19:02 UTC
Looks all good, but I'm a bit wary about the phrasing of the Summary and %description. 

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Trademarks_in_Summary_or_Description
says that any chance of confusion that the package is the trademarked item, should be avoided. I think it'd be better to rephrase the summary as

Summary: access google search, google site search, google news from the terminal
%description: googler is a power tool to access Google (Web & News) websites and Google Site Search website from the command-line. [...]

(I know the %description has a disclaimer at the end, let's be careful here.)

Suggestion:
%__make → make
%{__install} → install
(those macros are pointless)
