I think rpmlint is in error here.

8: yes, upstream is dead as far as I can tell.

Unfortunately a2ps is *really* temperamental with autotools.  Yes, it is
necessary to re-run them in order to add knowledge about some architectures e.g.
x86_64.  If you can find any way to make this better in a2ps, please send me a
tested patch -- I spent at least two days trying to get it to *build* at all
last time I had to update it.

I've applied all the changes I've seen suggested, and tagged and built 4.13b-61.fc7.
