Hi,
Though I'm not an expert, I would probably recommend you to install spec-cleaner from Vincent Untz home[1] project and run it on the spec file.
I've now done and am building the result on my "unstable" home repo.
Additionally I would also consider you to check out if mint slab menu is to use with GNOME, if so... You might want to try to submit request it to GNOME:Apps, and eventually sign the opensuse-gnome mailing list.
MintMenu is primarily used on GNOME, but can be used anywhere (like I said in my OP, I've used it in it's own window on FluxBox and OpenBox). If it fits better as a GNOME app, I can submit it there.
There are a couple of stuff you can improve on the spec... the %find_lang macro is one of the things that pop into sight.
I was unfamiliar with the %find_lang macro until rpmlint started complaining about it the .mo files not being in %lang. In fact I didn't worry about localisation in general until on of the users I have wanted it translated into Spanish. I pulled in the translations from Linux Mint, but all of their translations are in one package and distributed as one tarball (so I have to pare that list down into just mintMenu translations). What I ended up with is admittedly kludgey, but works and does not make rpmlint complain. In the end what I really need is a good example on how to appropriately use %find_lang and %lang; I tried googling but didn't see any real examples, mostly unanswered questions on how to use it or errors people were getting.
