I build mine as root ( a normal user account gave me some erorrs), and all seems well?
Use yum to install rpmdevtools. Then rpmdev-setuptree will do all of the work that's required to build rpms as a user.
I suppose rpmdevtools is only available from EPEL. But the following procedures will do the job:
cd mkdir -p rpmbuild/{BUILD,RPMS,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS} echo "%_topdir %(echo $HOME)/rpmbuild" > .rpmmacros
Then as root, yum install rpm-build
