John,
That's correct. It in ~/rpmbuild now, so that you don't need to be root
to install/build an SRPM.
I knew there was some way to use cpio to extract an RPM, too, but I
didn't know the command. Thanks for sharing.

Prentice - duuuh of course. As I remember Redhat changed the place
where a source RPM places its source files.
It was under /usr/src I think it now unpacks locally under roots home
directory.
Once can also unpack the files from an RPM using:
rpm2cpio packagename.rpm | cpio -idv
I cant rememberif that exactly works with a source RPM, but it should.

This is a bit round-about, but if you can only find the source RPM
(SRPM) , the SRPM should include the source tarball, so in theory,
you can install the SRPM, and then just take the source tarball
from there, and do what you want with it.

Hi Mikhail,
if you are familiar with RPM: if there are source-rpm files
you should be able
to rebuild it on your system. That way you don't install
software which is not
managed by your package management system which might be of
advantage.
All the best from a currently wet London

Sorry, may be my question is not exactly for our Beowulf
maillist.
I have 2 small OpenSuSE-based clusters using different
batch systems,
and want to connect them "grid-like", via CREAM (Computing
Resource
Execution And Management)
service (I may add
also one additional common server for both clusters).
But there is no CREAM binary RPMs for OpenSuSE (Only for
CentOS7/SL6
on UMD site
//repository.egi.eu/2018/03/14/release-umd-4-6-1/
<http://repository.egi.eu/2018/03/14/release-umd-4-6-1/>).
I did not find:
where I can download source text of CREAM software ?
