Your %{_libdir}/* wildcard is overencompassing and also picks up 
/usr/lib/debug.

Instead of overly broad wildcards and %exclude, you should use more specific 
wildcards, e.g.:
%{_libdir}/*.so.*

I also recommend deleting files you aren't going to package at all at the 
end of %install rather than using %exclude for them.
