Here are some comments on your latest spec:

- I recommend not to adapt the Makefile but assign the proper CFLAGS in the
make
  statement instead:
  make CFLAGS='%{optflags} -DVERSION=\"%{version}\"' %{?_smp_mflags}
  This is much safer since sed might silently fail if the pattern doesn't 
  match.

- use macro %{_prefix} in the %install section:
  make install prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_prefix} INSTALL='install -Dp'

- clear the exec perms of the manpage (in %install), e.g.:
  chmod 644 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_mandir}/man1/since.1

- in %files, please use either the %{name} macro or "since". Don't mix them:

  %{_bindir}/%{name}
  %{_mandir}/man1/%{name}.1*

  or

  %{_bindir}/since
  %{_mandir}/man1/since.1*

- replace %clean with %%clean in the %changelog to make rpmlint happy


$ rpmlint /var/lib/mock/fedora-14-x86_64/result/*.rpm
