FYI, you don't need %clean at all these days.  (F12 was the last Fedora release
that needed it, and F12 is closed to new packages, so....)

Unfortunately manipulation of %buildroot in %build is a guideline violation. 
rpmlint complains about it:
qjoypad.src:35: W: rpm-buildroot-usage
  %build test -d $RPM_BUILD_ROOT || mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
qjoypad.src:38: W: rpm-buildroot-usage
  %build ./config --prefix=%{_prefix} --install-dir=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT

I believe it suffices to simply call the config script twice; once in %build
without --install-dir and again in %install with --install-dir.  This seems to
result in an identical package.

I installed and ran the package and it seems to work but I have no joypads (nor
can I understand how anyone uses those uncomfortable things).
