Following are the changes proposed in above patch
1) Generally we used to have dependent packages already built in repo so I
guess no need of versioned BuildRequires: and also Requires:

See,https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Explicit_Requires

If this package needs versioned BR: and R: then please add comment in spec file

2) Guidelines shows no need to use versioned scriptlet Requires: needed.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets#GConf

3)Guidelines shows no need of following in spec now as per
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#desktop-file-install_usage

Requires(post): desktop-file-utils
Requires(postun): desktop-file-utils

4) Removal of Obsoletes and Provides is recommended after 2 releases
See
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrade_paths_%E2%80%94_renaming_or_splitting_packages#Do_I_need_to_Provide_my_old_package_names.3F

5) Guidelines suggests to keep timestamps of upstream installed files. So
please use 
make install DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT INSTALL="install -p"

See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Timestamps

6) Guidelines suggests package built above F-13 do not need %clean

See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#.25clean

7) Updated scriptlets used as per guidelines suggested
 a) https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets#Scrollkeeper
says "In all current Fedora, rarian has replaced scrollkeeper. There is no
scriptlet needed for rarian"
 b) https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets#desktop-database
 c) https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets#Icon_Cache
 d) https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets#GConf

8) Guidelines recommends defattr usage as 
%defattr(-, root, root,-)
See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#File_Permissions
