Hmm, the tarball does not match upstream:

c987096dc11e2605f4a73c19484a4a9b  fwbackups-1.42.tar.gz
10c8fda1c5809681aa870a2c71f84ed5  ../fwbackups-1.42.tar.gz

The files are different sizes as well (31347 in the srpm, 32282 upstream).

I'm not sure why you have constructs like this in %install:
   install -p -d -m755 etc/fwbackups\
     ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{_sysconfdir}/fwbackups

install -d creates each of its arguments as directories, but "etc/fwbackups"
already exists because it's in your source tarball.

You install fwbackups.conf twice.

I think you could significantly shrink your %install section with by using "cp
-rp" instead of installing each file separately, but I suppose that's up to you.

Note that there's currently some discussion about changing the recommendations
for installing desktop files, but that won't be decided for another several days
and I don't think it will effect your package.

Are you sure fwbackups.conf.default should go in /etc?  It should certainly not
be marked noreplace as you want it to change on an upgrade (since the old
version isn't the default any longer).  I would consider marking it %doc instead.
