formal review is here, see the notes explaining OK* and BAD statuses below:

OK      source files match upstream:
            5dcb211602b1639a6cda5055f02245b8f94d0559 
util-linux-2.19-rc1.tar.bz2
OK      package meets naming and versioning guidelines.
OK      specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros
consistently.
OK      dist tag is present.
OK      license field matches the actual license.
BAD     license is open source-compatible. License text included in package.
OK      latest version is being packaged.
OK      BuildRequires are proper.
OK      compiler flags are appropriate.
OK      package builds in mock (Rawhide/x86_64).
OK      debuginfo package looks complete.
BAD     rpmlint is silent.
BAD     final provides and requires look sane.
N/A     %check is present and all tests pass.
OK      shared libraries are added to the regular linker search paths with
proper scriptlets
OK      owns the directories it creates.
OK      doesn't own any directories it shouldn't.
OK      no duplicates in %files.
OK      file permissions are appropriate.
OK      correct scriptlets present.
OK      code, not content.
OK      documentation is small, so no -docs subpackage is necessary.
OK      %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.
OK      headers in -devel
OK      pkgconfig files in -devel
OK      no libtool .la droppings.
OK      not a GUI app.

- the uuidd, libmount, libblkid, libuuid subpackages must include their license
text as %doc
- rpmlint throws a lot of warnings/errors, mostly can be ignored I think, but
they deserve a review
- the compatibility Provides/Obsoletes should be cleaned up
    for the update path I suggest to use "Obsoletes: util-linux-ng < 2.19"
(instead of < 2.18.1)

- you can drop the Buildroot tag and the clean section, they are not needed in
recent Fedoras (and next RHEL)
