Just remove the offending libraries / directories in the %prep section. No need
to remove the osx/win stuff as long as you don't build against it, nor include
any of the files in your %file section

You need to include all of the upstream license files with a summary. Because
the content licenses are different in the data subpackage you can add a
separate License tag for this sub-package. You can't include the Debian file as
a license as they are not upstream and have no authority here.

Sure, change blockers/depends as you see fit.

Right, but you would have Patch0: redeclipse-1.2-fix-icon-sizes.patch

and in you %prep section:

%patch0 -p1

for example. Do this for all of your patches.
