The license tag should be:

License: LGPLv2+ and Python

Also, you're using mixed macros ($RPM_BUILD_ROOT vs %{buildroot}). I would
suggest that you standardize on the latter.

I'm a little concerned about the forced dependency on
/usr/lib/debug/lib*/ld-2.11.2.so.debug, as technically, the package that
provides it (glibc-debuginfo) is not part of the normal repositories, so this
package will not be installable without the user consciously enabling the
debuginfo repo.

Perhaps a cleaner approach would be for the command to check on invocation for
presence of that library, and if not found, prompt the user to run the
appropriate "debuginfo-install" command, similar to gdb's behavior when it hits
missing debuginfo during a debug run.
