Hi,

The above line is key.
It fails because the rpm was built on a Centos 6 machine that uses the newer
rpm format. You can either extract it by using rpm -Uvh --nomd5 and then
rpmbuild -bs specfile.spec or go get the Centos 5 src.rpm at
http://yumrepo.tntechs.com/yum-repository/local/centos/tntechs-testing/5/SRPMS

Ok, I'm much further than when I started. I've got to move a few things
around to match the Mandriva FSH (shouldn't have a tmp directory in /usr, it
should be in /var, etc) and I'll need to tweak the init file, and the httpd
daemon is called apache in the mandriva family, but all-in-all, I'm much
further along than I was a month ago.
