I have a shell script for invoking rpmbuild in a consistent way, nonetheless, it is not immediately obvious what is wrong when someone runs rpmbuild for the first time and gets an error message.
Maybe _without_php (or _without_ everything) should be the default? Another issue with spec files: how do people prefer to manage version numbers in spec files, particularly when using SVN to create branches? One idea is using configure to create rrdtool.spec from rrdtool.spec.in, although there needs to be some way to tell configure what version number to use.
