I did 5 and 6 anyway, assuming that in the worst case they were not needed and
would do no harm. I then did 'rpmbuild -bc ...' as below.

It was working until gpg had a segfault. From some of the emails I have been
reading this is a known problem that has not been fixed yet.

Other emails I have read indicated that signmodule should be set to 0.
What is the down side risk of doing this?

All I can tell you is that 'signmodules' is set to 0 in my spec file.
I did not change it, so that must have been CentOS's default (?).

By the way, Johnny Hughes has kindly checked the above procedure and
said, "that's what I do."  This is a big assurance.  I agree that your
goal is almost there.

Isn't Linux fantastic?  Imagine trying this in Windows...
