I've been dealing a lot with rpms lately and have run into quite a bit
of info on how to do it.  Through some trial and error, you'll finally
get a hang of it.  Anyways, here's some helpful links to get you
started:

http://www.fedora.us/pipermail/fedora-devel/2003-March/000640.html
http://www.rpm.org/RPM-HOWTO/
http://www.redhat.com/docs/books/max-rpm/

These 3 links, as well as looking at many source RPM spec files as
references has been extremely helpful.
