Did you create a single spec to build the rpms for the whole office?

If you are interested in researching this, you can look at how it was
done in Fedora:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=276232
Download the srpm, and uncompress it (rpm2cpio<file>  | cpio -idv),
you'll see the single spec file openoffice.org.spec.

Our packaging and the Fedora packaging are indeed quite different (thank you for extracting the spec files from our build process).

Note that the single spec file for Fedora 14 relies on significant patches (thousands of lines of code) and that rebuilding that package on Fedora 14 didn't work for me until I applied another patch by David Tardon. This is not very important now, but I can recover details if needed.

Also note, for testing Fred's spec files, that Fedora 19 is now branched, so Rawhide will become Fedora 20 and is quite unstable; it is probably better to test packages and spec files on Branched https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/Branched so that we have working packages for Fedora 19.

Regards,
  Andrea.
