<p>currently when I pass <code>--nocheck</code> to <code>rpmbuild</code>, it just skips running check section, but there is no way to know this from spec file. would be nice if rpm would add some bcond for this, so packagers can do things like:</p>
<pre><code>%if %{with check}
BuildRequires: xxx
%endif
</code></pre>
<p>or, do something like</p>
<pre><code>%global _without_check 1
</code></pre>
<p>I remember that this was requested in RHBZ, but I can't find link (usual situation for bugzillas)..</p>
<p>The problem which I hit that MBS can't pass any parameters to koji (and passing them to mock is complicated in current code), so workaround was to put <code>%__spec_check_pre exit 0</code> in macros file which I don't like.</p>
