Not a full review but a cursory look shows you need to do atleast the
following:

You haven't fixed the issues noted in comment 3.  You need not specify
the build dependencies if they are part of the default build root. 

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Exceptions_2

You don't need to define a buildroot

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#BuildRoot_tag

No need to specify a clean section.  Yours is incorrect and empty

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#.25clean

You haven't written a changelog.  Make sure you run rpmlint on the spec
file, srpm and binary rpm
