Thanks for the help, but I got the same results;

====
mock /home/digimer/rpmbuild/SRPMS/mtr-0.75-5.el6.anvil.src.rpm

<dependencies installed>
<build messages>

make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.


RPM build errors:

As for redistribution; I spoke to someone here some months back about
creating a custom ISO and I was told I couldn't modify 'Packages', which
is what I needed to do. I am also making a RHEL variant, and emailing
their legal didn't get a reply, so I am going this route to not step on
toes.
