The error message is fairly self-explanatory. You have a symlink that points to
an absolute location (/usr/share/doc/HTML/en/common) rather than a relative one
(../common). Absolute symlinks should be avoided as they don't work as intended
in chroot-ed environments such as the anaconda installer.

You can fix it in %install at some point after doing "make install":

# Fix absolute symlink
rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_docdir}/HTML/en/kdirstat/common
ln -s ../common $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_docdir}/HTML/en/kdirstat/common
