Watching closely your new spec file I noticed other things:

* %configure --with-fdtarball=%{SOURCE1} is enough to set prefix and mandir
(and a lot other things)

To understand this, try:
$ rpm --eval='%configure'

* %setup -q should be enough. Your %setup -q -T -b 0 doesn't make sense:

* Release tag is still not correct:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Package_Release

* I suggest you to explicit the desktop file in %files in this way: 
%{_datadir}/applications/%{name}.desktop

It is much more readable than:
%{_datadir}/applications/*

* I don't think this is needed. 
BuildRequires:  binutils

Otherwise please explain.

* Have you tried building the RPM in mock to test your dependencies?

* Forget my previous comment about Source URL, but I really want to know why
you are packaging a development version. What are pro's and con's compared to
the latest stable version?

* As Rahul said, you should really need to follow this guide to get sponsored:

You only seems to comment on this bug. This is not enough to find a sponsor and
get sponsored.
