Bear in mind that EL6 is based upon Fedora 12-13 (roughly).  So you'll
need to figure out which packaging features have been changed since that
time.  But I believe this is more related to an issue inside the
clipit-startup.desktop file than an RPM .spec file issue - most likely
related to xdg-utils (Portland).
