It's OK :)

I will review it too.

I'd let the original names for each package, as recommended by the guidelines,
and add a Requires on novacomd in the novacom package, since the client cannot
work without the service.
If novacom and novacomd were available from the same source, I'd even package
it as a single RPM.

This comment is rather relative to the novacom package. I don't think providing
a desktop file for novaterm is worthy since novacom is clearly described as a
set of command-line tools.
