Description: 

CSparse is a small yet feature-rich sparse matrix package written
specifically for the book "Direct Methods for Sparse Linear Systems". The
purpose of the package is to demonstrate a wide range of sparse matrix
algorithms in as concise a code as possible.

*** Packager's Note: This is a dependency for naev, also pending review. ***

Package name does not comply to FPG. The tarball is called CSparse*

While following bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714716 I noticed that Fedora already has suitesparse pkg,
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/suitesparse

that aggregates several sparse libraries:

$ yum info suitesparse
Installed Packages
Name        : suitesparse
...
Summary     : A collection of sparse matrix libraries
URL         : http://www.cise.ufl.edu/research/sparse/SuiteSparse
License     : LGPLv2+ and GPLv2+
Description : suitesparse is a collection of libraries for computations involving sparse
            : matrices.  The package includes the following libraries:
...
            :   CSparse     a concise sparse matrix package
...

whiteout going further into the details is this a different package?

If it is I will have closer look and I will review the package.

Its not a different package, so this is not necessary. Good catch.
