Hi

This means that the build process has found a file that is not covered
by the files section of you spec file.  If you are sure this is a
legitimate file then simply add
/usr/share/applications/centos5-shutter.desktop under the files
section.

Then I would suggest adding some echos to spec file that show the values of %{_datadir} and %{name} to make sure the values they return match /usr/share/applications/centos5-shutter.desktop
