You should remove the sentence : "The latest version is available off
http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/bubblemon/" from the %description
since people who install from the package in Extras shouldn't be told that.

I think PROFILING and TRANSLATIONS could be removed from %doc.

Last, maybe you could use :

%lang(hu) %{_mandir}/hu/man1/*
%lang(sv) %{_mandir}/sv/man1/*

In order to color the files with the language they're in, although there
have been many discussions lately as to the usefulness of this in rpm
altogether (it's definitely not mandatory to use it, that's for sure).

Oh, and I see you wrote "Remove the hardcoded disttags", but you could
still use "%{?dist}" if you like, as it would make enough sense for this
package.

For the rest, it looks good, I'll try the program once I finish
downloading the source rpm (to get the patch) @ 50bps :-/
