ok...

* is there a 'make' missing in %build?
* rules should be installed with the '-p' switch to keep timestamps
  (useful e.g. for automatic updates)
* %{_sysconfdir}/rc.d/init.d should be written as %_initrddir
* Requires(...): are missing for the %scriptlets
* I would put the rules into a separate subpackage to allow easier
  updates

* As I like and use minimal systems I would prefer -mysql, -postgresql
  subpackages which use 'alternatives' to set a link to
  /usr/sbin/snortd. So, unneeded dependencies will be prevented
