- The error for "no translations found" can be fixed by
changing

%find_lang %{name}

to

%find_lang %{name}-2 in the spec file.

- Then it breaks whilw building the -debuginfo package.
Couldnt find a solution other than disabling this package by
adding

%define debug_package %{nil} at the beginning of the spec file

- then it breaks, stating that unpackaged files were found.
Solved by changing

# extract files for devel package
egrep '(-config|\.h|\.la|\.a|\.pc)$' \

to

# extract files for devel package
egrep '(-config|\.h|\.la|\.a|\.pc|\.3)$' \

In the following line the \.3 had been added but omittet in
the first line.

Cheers, Michael.
