Hi,
I am working on updating the Finnish spell-checking stack to the current upstream versions.
Currently Fedora has the malaga-suomi-voikko package, which is arch-specific. For example, my own system has malaga-suomi-voikko-1.19-12.fc33.x86_64 installed. In upstream, the successor of this package is called voikko-fi and according to the upstream developers the data files are not arch-specific anymore.
My WIP spec file is at https://vpv.fedorapeople.org/packages/voikko-fi.spec
How should I handle Obsoletes and possibly Provides in this case? Do I just do Obsoletes: malaga-suomi-voikko < 1.19-13 and that's it?
Yeah, obsoletes are not arch specific. (Though maybe make it <1.19-20, to avoid issues if the package gets rebuilt for whatever reason before the replacement is ready).
%define debug_package %{nil}
Looks iffy. Shouldn't your package have BuildArch:noarch? This should not be necessary once you add BuildArch:noarch.
No https?
make vvfst
%make_build vvfst ?

I am close to submitting this package for review and would take review swaps as well. This package is basically the only blocker left, the others are relatively simple version updates that I should be able to manage by myself.
