How can we enable our system to build rpm packages as root? I found some
rpm macro on the internet:

http://users.tkk.fi/~tkarvine/rpm-build-as-user.html

I've never tried it myself thoe. Is it possible to make only one user
(instead of all normal users) who will have permissions for building
rpms? What are advantages of that approach? Potentially security issues?

Thanks. Cheers!
