I still think that in the %description, the following is not useful
(and it is wrong, though for weird corner cases):

 Basesystem should be in every installation of a system, and it
 should never be removed.

This is not a blocker though.

Another suggestion would be to remove Fedora from the Summary
and %description, there is nothing fedora specific here.

The summary isn't that good in my opinion. Maybe something along:
Summary: Skeleton package which sets up a simple system

And last I think a comment in the spec would be nice, like

# this package is Required by the libc and so should almost always be
# installed, and its only use is to have the needed Requires(Pre)

So
* rpmlint ignorable
basesystem.src: E: no-cleaning-of-buildroot %install
basesystem.src: E: no-cleaning-of-buildroot %clean

You can clean those errors if you want to, be it only for the sake
of having consistent packaging.

basesystem.src: W: no-url-tag
basesystem.noarch: W: no-documentation
basesystem.noarch: W: no-url-tag
* there is nothing built, no file

Please consider fixing my comments, but they are not blockers.

APPROVED
