Oh, I understand that...I just didn't want it to install it there
(/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES). (Good thing I wasn't root.)
I'm just going with the tarball where I have more control over the
installation process.
Thanks all!

You should be root or use sudo when installing RPMs.

But when I tried to install the source, I got (because of
permissions):
$ rpm -i ../hobbit-4.2.0-1.src.rpm
error: cannot write to %sourcedir /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
So, it appears that there is some directory information that the -qpl
switch doesn't display
