BTW, this does build OK if you change the build dependency to libwpd-devel.

The resulting build has several rpmlint problems:

libwps.x86_64: E: binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath /usr/bin/wps2text ['/usr/lib64']
libwps.x86_64: E: binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath /usr/bin/wps2raw ['/usr/lib64']
libwps.x86_64: E: binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath /usr/bin/wps2html ['/usr/lib64']

So some rpath fixing is in order.

libwps-devel.x86_64: E: library-without-ldconfig-postin 
  /usr/lib64/libwps-stream-0.1.so.1.0.1
libwps-devel.x86_64: E: library-without-ldconfig-postun 
  /usr/lib64/libwps-stream-0.1.so.1.0.1
libwps-devel.x86_64: E: library-without-ldconfig-postin 
  /usr/lib64/libwps-0.1.so.1.0.1
libwps-devel.x86_64: E: library-without-ldconfig-postun 
  /usr/lib64/libwps-0.1.so.1.0.1

It's rather abnormal to have versioned libraries in the -devel package, isn't
it?  Usually those go in the main package and the unversioned .so links go in
-devel.

libwps-devel.x86_64: W: unused-direct-shlib-dependency 
  /usr/lib64/libwps-stream-0.1.so.1.0.1 /usr/lib64/libwpd-0.8.so.8
libwps-devel.x86_64: W: unused-direct-shlib-dependency 
  /usr/lib64/libwps-stream-0.1.so.1.0.1 /lib64/libm.so.6
libwps-devel.x86_64: W: unused-direct-shlib-dependency 
  /usr/lib64/libwps-0.1.so.1.0.1 /lib64/libm.so.6
The libraries link against various libraries they don't actually call.  This
isn't generally a big problem unless this causes additional dependencies, which
doesn't seem to be the case here.  Nice to fix if you can, but not a blocker.
