It looks odd to have the name of the package in the summary, since we already
have the package name.  I'd suggest just "A program for statistical analysis of
sampled data".  I don't think it's a particularly big deal, though.

There's a complete test suite included; I can't see any reason not to run it as
it works fine with:
  %check
  make check
after the %install section.

I'm pretty sure a GUI is included; shouldn't this have a desktop file so that it
will show up in the menus?

A couple of .la files are installed; generally these aren't shipped.  Are they
needed for something?

Both versioned and unversioned .so files are included in the base package. 
Generally when both are present, the unversioned .so files are put in the -devel
package, but there's not really anything else that would be in a -devel package.
 Are the unversioned .so files used for something?  They seem to be plugins of
some sort.

This package should own /etc/pspp.

* source files match upstream:

* package meets naming and versioning guidelines.
* specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently.
? summary is odd.

* license is open source-compatible.
* license text included in package.
