1. When ltib runs, it works out that you want to build
u-boot-1.3.3-lpc32xx it looks for either u-boot-1.3.3-lpc32xx.spec or
u-boot-1.3.3-lpc32xx.spec.in (if not found).

2. It parse the .spec.in and it concatenates it with named .tmpl and
puts .spec into the tmp directory of your ltib instance.

3. The builder uses the auto-created tmp/u-boot-1.3.3-lpc32xx.spec

Yes, make it like the example I pointed you too.  In the .spec.in you
need to name the template (# template = u-boot-common.tmpl) and then
list only the stuff upto and including the %prep clauses.  The %build
and other sections are in the common .tmpl part.  You don't need to
touch this.

Not sure,  but I guess the 'make config' part created it.

All you need to do it to rename it from xxx.spec to xxx.spec.in and make
it look like this:

# template = u-boot-common.tmpl
%define pfx /opt/ltib/rootfs/%{_target_cpu}
