Check the script 'nightlybuild' in the root of the CVS repository. You 
can run that as a regular user. It uses a configuration file 
~/.mgd-buildrc. If it doesn't find one it will one with bogus values, so 
you'd want to stop the script the first time around and  edit the 
configuration file. 
As the script it is designed for test builds it will upload the results 
to a remote server and clean up everything that is local. It uses a login 
file for login credentials, see ~/.mgd-buildrc or the to of 
nightlybuilds.

Even easier option: check 
http://nightlybuilds.midgard-project.org/mandrake7.2/ or 
http://nightlybuilds.midgard-project.org/redhat6.2/ and fetch a recent 
set of rpms.

If you give the nightlybuild script a go, let me know how it works for 
you.

Armand.
