I an trying to build a courier rpm

 

As root I run rpmbuild -ta courier-0.52.1.20051212.tar.bz2

 

I get this error

configure: WARNING: === Do not compile Courier as root.  Compile

configure: WARNING: === Courier as a non-root user then su to

configure: WARNING: === root before running make install.  You must now

configure: WARNING: === remove this entire directory and then extract the

configure: WARNING: === source code from the tarball as a non-root user

configure: WARNING: === and rerun the configure script.  If you have read

configure: WARNING: === the INSTALL file you should have known this.  So

configure: WARNING: === you better read INSTALL again

configure: error: aborted.

error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.43089 (%prep)

 

What directory do I need to delete

 

I cannot run rpmbuild as a nonpriv user

 

I get

 

error: Failed to rename /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/rpm-spec.HtTzQ9 to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/rpm-spec.HtTzQ9: Permission denied: No such file or directory

 

any suggestions
