The missing file pgpool-II-head.patch is the difference between 3.6
stable head and pgpool-II-3.6.7. We create rpm files including the
diff between previous release (in this case 3.6.7) and the stable
branch head. The file is actually generated in the automatic rpm build
process using docker. See
https://github.com/pgpool/docker-pgpool-II-rpm for more details. In
the mean time you can probably remove:

Patch1:         pgpool-II-head.patch

%patch1 -p1

from the spec file because you replace pgpool-II-.3.6.7.tar.gz with
the 3.6 stable head tar ball.
