&gt; Thanks for the tips so I have gotten mock installed but for the life of me I<br>
&gt; can&#39;t figure out how to install the srpm, edit the spec file and then<br>
&gt; re-build.  I have seen an example that installs and then I can edit via mock<br>
&gt; shell, but when I do a rpmbuild -ba or -bb it says its misssing the .tar<br>
&gt; files....any help or pointing in the right direction would be appreciated.<br>
&gt;  I know what I need to do to the spec file just not sure how to achieve<br>
&gt; it...thanks.<br>
