I would list it.

This seems to have happened in the RH6.2/7.0 time frame (~autofs 3.1.5/6), and
I'd would argue that it's long past its usefulness.  

It also triggers:

E: autofs obsolete-not-provided autofs-ldap
The obsoleted package must also be provided to allow clean upgrade paths
and not to break dependencies.

Other rpmlint:

W: autofs conffile-without-noreplace-flag /etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs
A configuration file is stored in your package without the noreplace flag.

- Shouldn't be marked as %config.  You could also use the %{_initrd} macro for
the diretory here and elsewhere in the spec.

E: autofs executable-marked-as-config-file /etc/auto.net
E: autofs executable-marked-as-config-file /etc/auto.smb

- But these are okay - expected to be modified and not required for operation.
