Thanks for the review, William.

No, I don't think it's pidgin's bug. That comment in the spec file is just a
reminder for myself why I had to own this directory. On pidgin's point of view,
there is no reason why pidgin should own this dir: it doesn't place any files
in there, and also it's not a standard directory where plugins would put stuff.

So right now I think it's best if pidgin-birthday-reminder owned this dir.

According to [1], choosing $RPM_BUILD_ROOT vs %{buildroot} is left entirely up
to the packager. What matters is that $RPM_BUILD_ROOT should not be mixed with
%{buildroot} in one spec.

No, none are available.
