Build tips
Diagnosing errors building rpms
First tip is to make sure all the files needed to build are in the tarball. Often, this is the problem. If files are not missing, and you want to re-run the specific build commands that failed you must first enter the build environment using a chroot shell. Run this command altering the -r centos-5-x86_64 parameter to your desired distribution id.

mock --configdir=mak/mock -r centos-5-x86_64 --shell
mock-chroot> cd /builddir/build/BUILD/*/
make

Then you can look around and try to find the issue with make. To exit, simple type "exit".
