A few findings:

Drop all these. They are automatically found and added by rpm-build.

Why not?

Requires: %libname = %version-%release

is missing here.

%defattr is missing here.

> %files -n %{libname}-devel

%defattr is missing here.

%dir %{_libdir}/vde2

is missing here. The *.*a wildcards ought to be adjusted as not to
include static libraries.


%post -n %{libname} -p /sbin/ldconfig
%postun -n %{libname} -p /sbin/ldconfig 

are missing.
