The missing group and user errors don't really make any difference,
but be unable to open a temp file might be due to not having a build
tree (I can't see mention of one in those instructions), see:
<http://www.city-fan.org/tips/CreateRPMBuildEnvironment>
basically you need to do:

# yum install fedora-rpmdevtools
(root)

$ fedora-buildrpmtree
(normal user)

You may also want to try the guide to building the JPackage rpm from
<http://www.city-fan.org/tips/JpackageJava>.
