I have noticed this too, for example here:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/papers/blob/rawhide/f/papers.spec#_141

The buggy %autosetup line seems to have been copied into spec files quite a lot.

I fixed it (once) when I updated librsvg2 a few months ago, but forgot
to check other places:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/librsvg2/blob/rawhide/f/librsvg2.spec#_101-110

I actually noticed this when adding bundling to papers packaging and made sure to leave bundled_rust_deps undefined for the non-bundled case, which should fix this issue for papers. In my opinion, librsvg's alternative fix is a little bit too verbose and repetitive - I quite like how Yaakov did it originally (it's just that it was a tiny bit buggy).

I wonder if it would be better to use bconds there as that would avoid the pitfall of someone at a later time defining bundled_rust_deps to 0 and things not working right in that case? Something like,

%bcond bundled_rust_deps %{defined rhel}

%autosetup %{?with_bundled_rust_deps:-a1}
