Yes - if you copy the OpenSSL tarball to your rpm SOURCES directory
(/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES by default) and the openssl.spec to your
SPECS directory (/usr/src/redhat/SPECS by default) you can build
source and binary RPMs using "rpm -ba openssl.spec"
If you include a valid .spec file in the tarball you distribute
you can also build RPMs using "rpm -ta openssl-0.9.x.tar.gz".
This will pull the spec file from the tarball and build source
and binary RPMs from it.
You shouldn't need the --buildroot as the spec file provides it.
