i'm a newbie at building rpms. I made a few rpms years ago, but can't now
make one on Centos 5.

as user or even better using mock.
That said, many a broken rpmbuild can be blamed on missing the
redhat-rpm-config package (containing lots of rpm macros).
If that's not the case I'd try rebuilding a known good src.rpm with
"rpmbuild --rebuild foo.src.rpm" to validate your setup.

When I type: rpmbuild -ba
/usr/local/rpmbuild/SPECS/centos-release-cr-ihc.spec
I get 'file not found' errors, for paths in /usr/local/rpmbuild/tmp:
error: File not found:
/usr/local/rpmbuild/tmp/centos-release-cr-ihc-buildroot/etc/yum.repos.d

All i did was to:
1) put a tarball in SOURCES,
2) put a spec file in SPECS,
3) rpmbuild -ba my spec file
Did I miss a step? If not, here's the contents of my tarball and spec
file:
The tarball in SOURCES is named: centos-release-cr-ihc-1.tar.gz
the contents of which are:
