OK, that's fine. 

Here comes the formal review. The package looks pretty clean now. I just
suggest another minor enhancement:
Although %{_bindir}/* adds the correct file at the moment, using "*" could
become a bit dangerous here. It's better to be more restrictive and give the
actual name of the added file: %{_bindir}/%{name}

These spelling errors can be ignored.
