In a spec file.
Humm, I think I'm doing something wrong.
I've put the above line in my ~/.rpmmacro file and... nothing.
release remains what is defined in the spec file.
Try in ~/.rpmmacros
%release yadda
Or from command line
--define 'release yadda'
what I want is simply rpmbuild --rebuild foo-1.0-1.src.rpm and obtain
foo-1.0-1.repo.arch.rpm and rpm -qp foo-1.0-1.repo.arch.rpm respond
foo-1.0-1.repo.rpm
See above.

generating a new spec file for each package I have to recompile and
*maintaining* it requires too much work from me...
I just want to use the src rpms as the integrators give them to me and
have a "rpm building chain" that automatically add what I need in the
release field.
No hassle is what you want, understood.

not if there is a file in the SOURCES that's named something.spec (by
example, the rpm package could include an example.spec file in its
source package that would be added in a doc directory as an example)
Yep.

humm, interresting.
are we sure that the spec file is always on last position ?
The position is deterministic iirc.

Humm, very interesting.
I'll look a bit further in that direction.
The flag is in RPMTAG_FILEFLAGS with value
RPMFILE_SPECFILE = (1 << 5)
Testing whether the bit is on is left as an exercise ...
