Note that there's literally no frigging reason known to the human race why RPM needs to supply absolute paths to every bleeping uglix executable on all possible platfomrs "protably" in spite of FHS and linux vendor induced rearrangements.
The proper (and entirely consistent with uglix tool box paradigms)
is to use PATH and write build recipes assuming that PATH is set
correctly.
Its also not too hard to generate the macro settings dynamically,
using which and some simple echo's. Its just *INSANE* to
track all these paths into @rpm5.org CVS with vendor peculier
"Have it your own way!" configuration delivered as drop-in
through One Size Fits All Uglixes (with a whopping amount
of AutoFu pain).
There's only a handful of toolchain related (I'm talking
CPU-VENDOR-OS-GNU-gcc
here) that are usefully configured in macros.
grep == grep *shrug*
But you might want to noodle up the script using
which/echo that dynamically generates a list
of absolute paths to executables that you deem
important instead.
