David,

probably you have a good reason for disabling the check for anti-virus
applications by default in the spec file. But maybe it would be a
possibility to use the mechanisms of rpm and include the configure
option '--disable-anti-virus' as

%{?_without_antivirus:--disable-anti-virus}

Ok, it inverses the selection default but it is easy to run the rpmbuild
process as

rpmbuild -ta --without antivirus mimedefang-2.39.tar.gz

Making '--disable-anti-virus' the default choice and enabling the
checking for anti-virus applications by using --with antivirus would be
a little bit more difficult.

Regards

Alexander
