The only macros I do not really like in Source0, are the ones that execute
programs, e.g. %(rm -rf / &>/dev/null; echo http://www.example.com/foo.tar.gz).
But it is not that important to me, since I now know, that this might happen, I
will be more careful with using spectool.

Btw. one odd thing for me in this spec is:

Obsoletes: system-config-services < 0.99.29
Requires: system-config-services >= 0.99.29

Afaik the Obsoletes does not make sense here, because thanks to the Requires,
old packages will be obsoleted by the newer system-config-services package
automatically.
