Thanks!

In general (not only for this special case): You need conditional
builds that can be controlled by external rpmbuild parameters like

rpmbuild --with avahi ... (if the default is w/o) or
rpmbuild --without ahavi ... (if the default is w/)

It makes sense to have the default to be the common used one, e.g. the
ones where FC5(/FC4) users don't have to change it.

Use

%{?with_ahavi:Do something for ahavi builds}

and

%{!?with_ahavi:Do something for non-ahavi builds}

in the specfile.

you can check some other specfiles to get an idea, e.g. mythtv or any
fortran package.
