thanks Tim,
and to all that responded.
I read up on the buildroot, stuff. Makes sense now.

thanks for the tip:
Now, I'm getting a weird error:
You're bypassing the buildroot. Modern RPM really really wants you to
do buildroot packaging -- instead of dumping files into their final
location in the %install section, you install them into a temporary spot
for packaging (/var/tmp/<your-package-name-here> is common).
Read up on BuildRoot installs in Maximum RPM and elsewhere.
Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files %{buildroot}
getOutputFrom(): Broken pipe
It only happens when I have these 2 lines: install -m 644 %{SOURCE1}
/usr/share/icons/foobar_enhancer.png, &
/usr/share/icons/foobar_enhancer.png (under %files)
%install
cp -r ${RPM_BUILD_DIR}/foobar-enhancer /opt
