rpmbuild missing from 2.6.18_92el5 download

487355Oct 9 2008 — edited Oct 22 2008
I hope someone can shed some light on this issue for me.
I was trying to get the source for the 2.6.18 installed in my unbreakable linux (64 bit intel)
I was following the metalink titled Working with Kernel Source on Enterprise Linux aka NOTE:420383.1
At one point the instructions ask you to run:
rpmbuild -bp kernel-2.6.spec

HERE IS THE PROBLEM...
rpmbuild is NOT installed

HERE IS THE SECOND PROBLEM...
rpmbuild is NOT found in the source code (I downloaded everything from edelivery.oracle.com)

At the point in the LINUX install that asks if you want to install additional software (HTTP, FTP, development environment, etc) I installed non of the options.

Any thoughts,
Bob.
