A bit late due to a bugzilla collision, but I fully agree with Michael:

(In reply to comment #23)

> E: clement non-standard-gid /var/spool/clement-2.1/mqueue clement
> A file in this package is owned by a non standard group.

Erm, so its an error (my mistake), still it can be ignored, rpmlint us an
automated validation tool and sometimes it can be just plain wrong. Trust me
(and Michael) on this between the 2 of us there is a ton of packaging experience.

Yes, you should not remove the user, the user may only be removed if your 100.1%
sure that no files owned by that user will be left around, which in this case we
aren't actually we are pretty sure that files will be left around, so the
userdel must be removed from the spec file.
