Remove the leading blanks and it will work.

At some point leading blanks may be permitted, but in most cases they
cause errors (like with %setup) or will probably produce results you
do not want (like in %description, although I'm not sure about that).
Better don't use leading blanks, nobody uses them.

Hope this helps,
