Where's the rpm --checksig to verify the gpg sig? :)

It's dangerous to build packages as root.  It's a practice that should
not be encouraged.  Build as a regular user (not even as your normal
user account, ideally).  To setup the config and dir structure needed
to build as a regular user, install the rpmdevtools package and then
run (as the user you want to build as):

$ rpmdev-setuptree

This will create ~/rpmbuild with the needed subdirectories.
