But it is not what is done in fedora! the soname is changed in the
bzip2-1.0.4-saneso.patch patch, and I question that change.


Otherwise
* there is no need of -p when installing generated binaries, like
  libbz2.a, bzip2-shared... And the static lib should be 0644. I personally
  like to have the -mxxx option even when it isn't stricly needed, so
  what I would have done is:

install -m644 libbz2.a $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libdir}
install -m755 libbz2.so.%{version} $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libdir}
install -m755 bzip2-shared  $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_bindir}/bzip2
install -m755 bzip2recover bzgrep bzdiff bzmore  $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_bindir}/

The only mandatory item here is to have -m644 on the libbz2.a install
call.
