Couple of quick comments:
1. In the files section, your using '%{_libdir}/*', which is causing your main
rpm to pull in the debuginfo.  What you need to do is explicitly list your
shared libs, that way you'll get a seperate rpm with the debuginfo.  You should
use something like '%{_libdir}/libgarmin*.so.*'.

2. libtool archives should not be included.  You should add the following in
the %install section after your 'make install':

find %{buildroot} -name '*.la' -exec rm -f {} ';'

2. Static libs -  currently your building them, and I'm pretty sure that's not
necessary.  To prevent this, you can add '--enable-static=no' to your configure
line in the %build section.  For more info refer to the static libs section in
the packaging guidelines.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Exclusion_of_Static_Libraries

3. missing -devel subpackage.  the package headers in the %{_includedir} and
the *.so should be included  in this sub package.

4. After a quick look the source it looks like this package should have a
license tag of 'GPLv2+'

If you need help or have additional questions, don't hesitate to contact me.
