The src.rpm was the one corresponding to the rpm installed, that is kdeadmin-3.2.2-2.src.rpm. To tell the truth, the only modification I made to the spec file was setting the kpackage value to 1 at the beginning of the file. I'll investigate further but if you (or anyone on the list) have specific information as to what else needs modifying, please let me know.

Eaxctly which kdeadmin src.rpm did you install, and what changes did you make to it? It appears as through the set of changes were incomplete, as the files /usr/sbin/kpackage and /etc/security/console.apps/kpackage have not been "installed" into the RPM, yet the spec file says that they should be there.
