Having worked on this over the weekend, finaly I got a spec file which seems
to work on Fedora Core 1 (and possibly older RedHat systems).
As my knowledge of kannel is still quite limited a host of bugs might be in it though. The spec file together with a binary rpm as well as a source rpm are available from:
http://www.flug.fo/contrib/kannel/
It would be appreciated if some FC1 users would download the source rpm http://flug.fo/contrib/kannel/kannel-1.2.1-17.src.rpm and try to rebuild as an ordinary user with $ rpmbuild --rebuild kannel-1.2.1-17.src.rpm
A few patches had to be applied in order to make things work: fixredhatinit.patch gateway-fixrpmbuildroot.patch gateway-fixdonotcreatebindir.patch The "rpmbuild" will take care of these.
Patches, as well as the spec file, a binary and a source rpm are available from
http://www.flug.fo/contrib/kannel/
Everything is based on the current stable kannel, ie. v. 1.2.1, and everything should compile running as any user.
I would like to suggest that someone included the kannel.spec within the source of kannel-1.2.1
