"not a specfile" probably refers to the src.rpm file you downloaded being broken...


Once rpmbuild has worked you will need to locate the file (/usr/src/rpms/....somewhere) and then type "rpm -ivh <filename>" replacing <filename> with the name of the file created.

If you re-download the file and still get the same error let us know...
