Well, at the time I think the only reason wireshark.spec was generated was so that we (and by "we" I really mean "Gerald") wouldn't have to change the version in wireshark.spec every time the our version changed.
Obviously I've been changing that over time so the .spec file is much more generated...
And, yeah, I'm starting to head in the direction of making the RPM follow ./configure's options: see r53607.
(If I hadn't been traveling and working so much recently I might have touched this stuff in the past month...)
