An alternative is to run: rpmbuild --rpmbuild  ..src.rpm (i.e, source
rpm)

The goal is to end up with a regular rpm file which could be installed
with the rpm command in the usual way.


I have benn trying the same thing to install the kernel sources and keep
coming up with the same or either way you do the rpmbuild.
error: line 155: Illegal char '-' in release: Release: 1.1532_FC4......
Any ideas?
Make sure that the "Release:" line in your spec file doesn't contain a -
sign?
That's the only thing you can't put in, IIRC.
if for example you have something like this:
Release: 1.1532_FC4-myversion
change it to
Release: 1.1532_FC4.myversion

and then try again

I see what you are saying however it seems to be grabbing my host name and adding it to the Release line: error: line 155: Illegal char '-' in release: Release: 1.1532_FC4.preed@6722-195-67
Any ideas how to get rid of that.
