You don't have the rpm-build package installed. $ rpm -q rpm-build rpm-build-4.0.4-7x.18 > I tried redhat-8.0 and the rpm that comes with it does not support rpm > builds. Sure it does. Again, you need the rpm-build package installed. The command to build a package has changed. 'rpm -ba {spec.file}' no longer works, it's now 'rpmbuild -ba {spec.file}'. > Any pointers of how-to build rpm would be greatly appreciated.
