1.
Well, static binary is strictly forbidden in fedora.
1-A please explain why it is needed (note: even if you explain why,
     perhaps most reviewers including me will not accept it).
1-B I don't know well about NSS service, however, static binary in this
     package seems meaningless anyway because you can see in the build log:

/builddir/build/BUILD/dar-2.3.1/src/libdar/.libs/libdar.a(tools.o): In function
`libdar::tools_name_of_gid(unsigned short)':
/builddir/build/BUILD/dar-2.3.1/src/libdar/tools.cpp:416: warning: Using
'getgrgid' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the sh
ared libraries from the glibc version used for linking
/builddir/build/BUILD/dar-2.3.1/src/libdar/.libs/libdar.a(tools.o): In function
`libdar::tools_name_of_uid(unsigned short)':
/builddir/build/BUILD/dar-2.3.1/src/libdar/tools.cpp:402: warning: Using
'getpwuid' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the sh
ared libraries from the glibc version used for linking

* Similarly, please explain why %{_libdir}/*.a is necessary (as said above,
  even if you explained why, it won't be accepted unless there is quite a
  reasonable reason).
