--- Comment #2 from Björn Esser ---
Package has some (patialy severe) issues. :( See report below. Since you are
new to pkging rpms I suggest doing a step-by-step run here.

Package Review
==
Legend:
[x] = Pass
[!] = Fail
[-] = Not applicable
[?] = Not evaluated
[ ] = Manual review needed
Issues:
===
- Package installs properly.
Note: Installation errors (see attachment)
See: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines
---> `Requires: perl-DBD-Sybase` would be correct, I suppose
- Package consistently uses macro is (instead of hard-coded directory names).
Note: Using both %{buildroot} and $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
See: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#macros
---> use one or the other, don't mix
- Since you want to package for el5, too, I assume, you should add the
following stuff:
* Group: (pick a suitable from /usr/share/doc/rpm-4.11.1/GROUPS)
* %install
%{?el5:rm -rf %{buildroot}}
* %clean
%{?el5:rm -rf %{buildroot}}
