That installs the source files in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
and the spec file in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS, the uses the spec
file to build the rpm, usually extracting the sources
in /usr/src/redhat/BUILD, patching and compiling, installing
in /var/tmp, packaging the files in a binary rpm, in
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/<arch> (probably i386) then removing
all the files except the src.rpm and the binary rpm.
You then do 'rpm -Uvh
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/<arch>/mysource-0.1-1.<arch>.rpm'
to install it.
