Yes, obviously the .channel files under %{_sysconfdir}/smart/channels
must also be marked as %config

But if you add a file in there yourself, it won't be marked as %config
and hence, RPM will complain if you don't mark %dir %{_sysconfdir}/smart
and %dir %{_sysconfdir}/smart/channels

But then again, that directory is only and specifically meant for
shipping .channel files as part of packages.

If you add channels yourself, they're being stored in
/var/lib/smart/channels/, not in %{_sysconfdir}/smart/channels/
