  - The most unkind answer is that "it is as written on
    packaging guideline". 
    http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets
    I guess /sbin/ldconfig is so common?

    Note: while I don't know if rpm adds the dependency for
          Requires(post) or etc, at least if %post -p <program>
          is written, rpm seems to add automatically the <program> to
          Requires.

   - Well, though I wrote "should", this is a "MUST" item of
     the review
     http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ReviewGuidelines
     (As written, the reason is directory ownership and
      usability for .pc file)

  %optflags is autually the flags we want to use. It is just
  CFLAGS you set is not honored by this way for this package
  (i.e. If normal way is not used to honor %optflags, you have
        to make %optflags honored *somehow*. Perhaps you have to
        investigate Makefile how compilation flags are used.)
