Much better now.
However, one major issue remains:
# rpmlint libmmdb-1.09.1-6.fc8.x86_64.rpm
libmmdb.x86_64: E: library-without-ldconfig-postin /usr/lib64/libmmdb.so.0.0.0
libmmdb.x86_64: E: library-without-ldconfig-postun /usr/lib64/libmmdb.so.0.0.0
You renamed "main-package" into libmmdb
=> Add "-n libmmdb" to %post and %postun
done.

Well, it helps for now (not a review blocker), except that it breaks
"rpmbuild -bi --short-circuit", because it removes files being generated
in %build, which will kill subsequent "-bi --short-circuit".
# rpmbuild -bb mmdb.spec
# rpmbuild -bi --short-circuit mmdb.spec

Avoiding this issue is a bit tricky.
One way is to copy Examples/ to a different directory inside of the build-tree,
(manually) remove the temporary files there and let %doc pickup this directory
instead of the original Examples/
went with this approach.
I'll approve the package, once the ldconfig-fix is applied.
BTW: Are you familiar with rpmlint? Though it's far from being perfect, it helps
you avoiding many of the "obvious" packaging mistakes.
I just installed it and have started using it (noticed it mentioned on
fedora-list, but never actually checked it out). Thanks for the pointer!
