The mpfr library is released under LGPL2.1, how can saying it is GPL in the
License tag be a "Good" thing? Of course you can relicense LGPL2.1 code as GPL,
but why would you do that? License: LGPL would be much better (unless with the
advent of GPL3, LGPL3, LGPL2.5 we start being more explicit and write
GPL2, GPL2+, GPL3, GPL3+, LGPL2, LGPL2+, LGPL2.1, LGPL2.1+, LGPL2.5, LGPL3,
LGPL3+ etc. in License tags.
Also, upstream mpfr releases stable fixes on top of the last release
as a cummulative patch, see http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-current/patches
It would be good to apply this in the spec file.
