The name of the specfile is incorrect. The file should be named
python-tesserwrap.spec, because the main Name: tag is python-tesserwrap, not 
just tesserwrap.

Also please remove the stray "Docs: IRC: tesserwrap on Freenode" from the 
%description sections. Especially the empty "Docs:" immediately (i.e., 
without any whitespace) following the '.' is garbage.

(Please note that this is NOT a complete formal review, I am just pointing 
out the obvious issues that I notice immediately at first glance.)

Tools such as pyp2rpm are very helpful, but some amount of manual editing is 
typically required on the output.
