On a side note, be very careful what you put into .rpmmacros (or etc/rpm/macros with lbuild) because it can cause builds to be unreproducible. IMO build reproduceability is a very important feature of RPM (well, src.rpm's). Defining %distribution and %package [1] is fine and could even be considered good practice, but overriding/adding macros means the src.rpm won't build on other hosts/environments than your own.
