Is there a tool available that simplifies the entire process? There is a site dedicated to RPM (http://www.rpm.org) but I cannot seem to access it today. It had an RPM HOWTO posted that is dated but still somewhat relevant. At any rate, I think it's probably best to learn-by-example. Look at existing SRPMs and see how they're constructed. I do not know of a tool that automates the process.
