  Okay, for that, you will need to unpack the SRPM using "rpm -i", as
you wrote.  Edit the spec file.  I suggest changing the "Release"
field somehow, to make it easier to distinguish your tweaked version
from the original.  Then do:

	rpmbuild -ba your-new-spec-file.spec

  That should spit out installable RPMs under /usr/src/RPMS and SRPMs
under /usr/src/SRPMS.  -ba is "build all".  There are variants for
more selective operations, consult the man page for details.
