I didn't notice the above line in my previous post.
Unfortunatly, the file globing is expanding to multiple
arguments.

You will have to use a `case' statement or other trickery.

Maybe like this:

  if [ ! -z "${1##*.src.rpm}" ] && [ ! -z "${1##*.srpm}" ]
  then
         .
         .
         .
         .
  else
         .
         .
         .
  fi

-or-

 case "$1" in
 (*.src.rpm | *.srpm)
         .
         .
         .
         ;;
  (*)
         .
         .
         .
         ;;
  esac
