Removing that from maxima.spec.in fixes that problem.  It's now building
on my openSuSE box.

One issue is that it assumes the tarfile can be copied to
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES.  That doesn't exist on my openSuSE box.  It's
/usr/src/packages/SOURCES.

Perhaps configure should look for the correct directory?
