You can do the define on the command line. I use, on some automated
builds (from svn sources):
rpmbuild -ba \
--define "_rpmdir /tmp" \
--define "_srcrpmdir /tmp" \
--define "_topdir $TMPD" \
--define "_rpmfilename %{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}.rpm" \
$TMPD/$NAME.spec
You can define your own variables, btw (--define "other /usr/src/other").
