Check the .spec once more, please.

There is difference with build_6x and build6x, it took some
time for me to notice that too. Also I had not noticed the
kerberos back port as I don't work with 6.2 regularily any more.

IMHO both variables names mislead and confuse easily, perhaps
the more appropriate name for build_6x would possibly be build_62
as it requires kerberos that was backported later and which is
not available for 6.0 or 6.1. The build6x then again would possibly
better named something else too as it certainly gets confused with
build_6x at least now.

HTH,
