I can not compare the upstream version with the packaged at the time as the
upstream web is not responding at the time.

The patch rats-2.1-linux.diff doesn't seem right to me;
1.) files rats-2.1/lex.yy*.c are autogenerated. Why don't you regenerate them
instead of patching?
2.) You seem to be patching unrelated issues in this one patch. Please eplit it
into multiple patches.

When I was talking about libdir in comment #2 and comment #3, I did not notice
that the package doesn't make use of libdir. Please ingore it.

Another bad thing in .SPEC:

  8 URL:            http://www.securesw.com/rats/rats-%{version}.tar.gz
  9 Source0:        rats-2.1.tar.gz

The URL tag is for the web page of the software's author, Source0 is for URIs of
the files. It should look like this instead:

  8 URL:            http://www.securesw.com/rats/
  9 Source0:        http://www.securesw.com/rats/rats-%{version}.tar.gz

Apart from these issues, the package meets the Packing Guidelines, and I will
approve it when the issues are resolved.
