./configure options passed to rpm-package target?

Question

I just noticed that the RPM spec file has its own set of ./configure options. This made me question whether support for different options that I run prior to running "make" and "make rpm-package" aren't being passed to the RPM build process.

I tried to add the same "--with-XXXX" options to the file in its ./configure section manually, but the build process ended prematurely because it said the options were not recognized options.

Any insight?

Hmm interesting must have been something I did wrong.

This worked:

%configure \
  --with-gnu-ld \
%if %{with_c_ares}
  --with-c-ares \
%endif
%if %{with_adns}
  --with-adns \
%endif
%if %{with_lua}
  --with-lua \
%endif
%if %{with_portaudio}
  --with-portaudio \
%endif
%if %{with_gtk3}
  --with-gtk3 \
%endif
  --without-zlib --disable-warnings-as-errors

This didn't:

%configure \
  --with-gnu-ld \
  --without-zlib \ 
%if %{with_c_ares}
  --with-c-ares \
%endif
%if %{with_adns}
  --with-adns \
%endif
%if %{with_lua}
  --with-lua \
%endif
%if %{with_portaudio}
  --with-portaudio \
%endif
%if %{with_gtk3}
  --with-gtk3 \
%endif
  --disable-warnings-as-errors
