bcond_with and bcond_without are pretty easy to use and works well, I
(personally) don't understand why we have another variants.
But they have one little trick: : "never use without_foo, _with_foo nor
_without_foo, only with_foo." . Also reading /usr/lib/rpm/macros, at
line 111, we got all examples that we may need.
we don't have "without" operator only "with" so at least
%if %{without mp3} , should be: %if ! %{with mp3} ...
Cheers,

Because bcond_with and bcond_without have one major flaw: They are
"backwards" compared to how most people think.
"%bcond_with foo" actually means to build WITHOUT foo by default, and to add
a "--with foo" switch to build with foo. Likewise, "%bcond_without
foo"
actually means to build WITH foo by default, and to add a "--without foo"
switch to build without foo. Many packagers find that really confusing.
And the --with and --without switches cannot be used in Koji anyway, so you
may as well hardcode the options in the specfile using %global.

"%bcond_with foo" means that you could use --with foo , otherwise
is WITHOUT foo , "%bcond_without foo" means that you have option
--without foo , it was easy to fix, for me. Again but the trick is not
use "without" in conditions, we may use: if ! %{with foo} or {!?with
foo: ...}

we can use in mock and is good to test all conditions (with or without
foo(s) ), without change the spec.
