It appears that either the '--without-authmysql' is being ignored, OR that
MySQL is wanted by something other than the auth modules that use it OR
that a 'non-optimal' entry in the build elsewhere cals for MySQL
regardless....

In general, this would otherwise not be an 'error'.  If the 'devel'
version of (anything) is called for it is almost always because a
particular component, such as a lib or header is needed that ships *only*
with the 'developer' version of the particular package.  If MySQL *is*
used other than for auth, changing the .spec file may just move your
problem downstream. 

You might just install the 'devel' version of MySQL so it is happy, do the
build, then - once everything is working, see if you can deinstall MySQL
and still have a working courier...
