+# Fixing packaging problems can be a tremendous pain because it
+# generally requires a complete rebuild, which takes hours.  To offset
+# the misery, do a complete build once using "rpmbuild -bc", then copy
+# your built tree to a directory of the same name suffixed with
+# ".built", using "cp -al".  Finally, set this variable, and it will
+# copy the already-built tree into place during build instead of
+# actually doing the build.
+#
+# Obviously, this can only work if you leave the build section
+# completely untouched between builds.
