There are no %prep and %setup sections in your spec file.
Without these sections, the source files aren't expanded properly.

IIRC, rpm can't handle zip file as the source, so you need to expand
it manually via unzip.  But, it'd be much easier if you re-pack the
contents to a tar.bz2.

Also, I'd suggest to rename to all lower letters as convention.
Maybe it'd be better to have -fonts (or -font) prefix in the package
name, so that it gets clearer what kind of package it is.
I'm going to rename monapo package to monapo-font as well.

Anyway, you'd be better to build the package locally on your machine
before submitting to the public repository.  M17N:Devel is a test
project, so it's almost harmless, though.


thanks,
