Right now it doesn't have such script. packager/reviewer should take
care on this. 
Hovewer rpmlint shows something like: 
gela-asis.x86_64: E: binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath
/usr/lib64/gela-asis/libgela-asis.so
['/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.2/adalib/', '/usr/lib']
and errors should bot be ignored...
