For source rpms you need to setup a ~/.rpmmacros file to tell it
where to put the unpacked source, then a command like

rpm -ihv whatever.src.rpm

will install a bunch of tar files in the install directory, then
you'll need to go to the SPECS directory where the source
was installed do something like

rpmbuild -bp cdrkit.spec

which will unpack all the source and apply all the patches so you
can actually examine the source files. (Lots of other options on
rpmbuild).

Dealing with source rpms the first time is always a confusing
experience, but you can probably find better documentation
than this short message.
