yep. it is in the source rpm.
What I do usually when I want to change a detail about an rpm is:
- download source rpm
- execute rpmbuild --rebuild <name-of-source-rpm> in the download-folder
- install all the dependencies (the rpmbuild --rebuild shows an error message 
if dependencies are missing)
- cd into /usr/src/packages/SPECS
- edit the *.spec file with a simple texteditor
- execute rpmbuild -ba <name-of-the-specfile>
- hope that everything builds without an error message ;)
- install the new rpms from /usr/src/packages/RPMS/i586.

That is - very simplified - how every rpm is built.
If you want to know more about rpms, specfiles and rpmbuild, have a look at 
the manpages and at http://www.rpm.org/RPM-HOWTO/
