Unfortunately when I insert the correct version in the spec file, I get this:

$ rpmbuild -ba --clean squidanalyzer.spec error: line 5: Illegal char '-' in: Version: 6.2-1

I'll answer that myself, since I just found the culprit. There's a version mismatch between the tarball and the extracted source directory. Simply renaming the tarball to version 6.2 fixed it.

Also, you can't use a - in the Version tag in the rpm spec file. A mismatch between the tarball name and the extracted source directory would be a different error.
