Hi,

please see my comments bellow:

> - Patch0 is missing a comment, still. Please add one in the spec file.
Well, I have added following text to he description already in 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=739347#c4

===================================================================
Patch represents changes planed for the version 1.3:
1)Changed run levels:
0=daemon
-1=configuration info
-2=write Bytes to stdout without limit
>0 write <r> Bytes to file. Units k,m,g,t are supported:


2)Added option to write random bytes to stdout: -f -
===================================================================

Not sure if I got it wrong - is there special section for it? Or perhaps you
have just overlooked it. Please let me know.


> - Please drop the "Apply patches: " comment and the following commented line.

It also false alarm. Please run
rpmlint -i

to see the detailed explanation:

haveged.i686: W: incoherent-subsys /etc/rc.d/init.d/haveged ${prog}
...... It is also possible
that rpmlint gets this wrong, especially if the init script contains
nontrivial shell variables and/or assignments.  These cases usually manifest
themselves when rpmlint reports that the subsys name starts a with '$'; in
these cases a warning instead of an error is reported and you should check the
script manually.

Init script is indeed using a variable.

Good hint, thanks!

Done.
