+Author: Stephan Kulow <coolo@suse.de>
+Date:   Wed Oct 15 10:38:29 2014 +0200
+
+    fixes for the opensuse template:
+    
+    - add one more space for sources
+    - add empty lines in front of the warning preamble - otherwise format_spec_file
+      removes it as old license comment
+    - don't %ghost %_bindir
