It still supports these normal options:
1. If you wish to just unpack the sources: rpm -Uvh some-package.src.rpm
2. If you wish to build an rpm straight off with the src:
rpmbuild --rebuild some-package.src.rpm
3. After you have done number 1 and then cd'ed into the SPEC dir:
rpmbuild -ba some-package.spec
4. Using a tarball with a spec file included:
rpmbuild =ta some-tarball-package.tar.gz
Hope that helps
