rpmlint now stands at

libgtextutils.src: W: spelling-error Summary(en_US) Assaf -> Assad, Assam,
Assai
libgtextutils.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US fastx -> fast,
fasts, fast x
libgtextutils.x86_64: W: spelling-error Summary(en_US) Assaf -> Assad, Assam,
Assai
libgtextutils.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US fastx -> fast,
fasts, fast x
libgtextutils-devel.x86_64: W: no-documentation
4 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 5 warnings.

The shlib issue and the compilation flags have been fixed.

Well, rpmlint is not the canonical source for these kinds of issues. It's a
tool targeted at all distributions using RPM, so it doesn't handle Fedora
specific stuff well. 

The Fedora Licensing page at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing does as
well have only AGPLv1, AGPLv3 and AGPLv3 with exceptions, but all other GNU
licenses seem to have the + versions that indicate that also later versions are
accepted.

The license of libgtextutils contains
   This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
   it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
   the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
   (at your option) any later version.

so I would really put AGPLv3+, although it makes rpmlint cry.

Please fix this issue before git import. The package has been

APPROVED


PS. One tiny nit-pick jumped to my eye: the empty line after %description is
IMHO unnecessary; you don't have one in -devel.
