Any chance someone could point me in the right direction. every time i
have downloaded the source rpm and tried to create a rpm for my system i
have cd to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and also tried /usr/src/redhat/SOURCE
and then tried to compile the rpm with the folowing command:

                        rpm -ta name of file.tgz
                             
                                            and also
                        
                        rpm -ba name of file.spec
                        
                                         and the
                        
                        rpm --rebuild option
                        
                        the only one to have worked so far is the nvidia
                        drivers src rpm, all the others give me errors
                        regarding:
                        
                        version field must be present in package: (main
                        package)
                        release field etc.etc
                        and so on 
                        
                        checked the man page for rpm , still none the
                        wiser
                        
                        any chance someone could put in the wright
                        direction please
                        
                        p.s sorry about the spacing 'using evolution and
                        keeps defaulting to this section every time you
                        press the tab'
