Right, this is to prevent creating packages that are not
reproducible.

I'd never recommend running make install as anything other than a
test, and certainly not as root. If you look just a bit at many
upstream Makefile's, you'd probably be similarly hesitant. :)
What I think you should do is install the SRPM as a normal user (which
rpmbuild in F-10 and above encourage by placing files in ~/rpmbuild by
default, rather than in /usr/src/redhat). Then, edit the spec file as
needed to set __WXDEBUG__. You should also bump the release field
(and add a changelog entry). If the release field is 1%{?dist},
appending a .1 to the end would be customary.
Then rebuild the package with rpmbuild -bb SPECS/audacity.spec (or -ba
if you want to also create a source rpm).
