As I recall, rpmdevtools is a Fedora-ism
The actions in question set up a local %{_topdir} and then the
RPMS, SOURCES, SPECS and so forth directories for a local user
[root@trap64 log]# su - herrold
[herrold@trap64 ~]$ cat .rpmmacros
%_topdir /home/herrold/rpmbuild
%make make
%dist orc
%releasetagsuffix orc
%vendor %{dist}
#
[herrold@trap64 ~]$ ls -l ~/rpmbuild/
total 40
drwxrwxr-x 8 herrold herrold 4096 Oct 10 21:12 BUILD
drwxrwxr-x 4 herrold herrold 4096 Oct 4 16:53 RPMS
drwxrwxr-x 3 herrold herrold 4096 Oct 10 21:12 SOURCES
drwxrwxr-x 2 herrold herrold 4096 Oct 10 21:12 SPECS

I think at one point the referenced package had a copy of a
little script I've long since published at:
ftp://ftp.owlriver.com/pub/local/COLUG/RPM-build-tree.txt
itself based on a post on the mailing list rpm-list
