+</I>&gt;<i> i have no problem it being in the spec file, but surely a better place rather
+</I>&gt;<i> than the description... it's not like users really need to know which compile
+</I>&gt;<i> flags there is or what you can do with rpmbuild...
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> i'm just saying this info should be moved out to comments in spec file, and
+</I>&gt;<i> change the description to state what exactly is compiled in...
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>It can be very useful for users to know what functions are activated in
+a package - which the compile flags often indicate. In the man page (or
+other documentation) there is often reference to functions available &quot;if
+activated&quot;.
+So I would favour keeping compile flags in the description, if it is
+possible that they make a difference in the functions available.
+However if the compile flags are required to make the package build
+properly, then it does make sense to make them a comment in the spec file.
+
+My 2 cents :)
