Hi List,
I was wondering, is there a way to take a zip file that just needs to be extracted to a given directory and build the rpm based off the zip file without creating a spec file?

I saw in some documentation the use of a command as follows:

rpmbuild -tb somezip.zip

I looked in the man page but didn't see a description for -tb. Is this a valid usage?
No, it isn't. The man page is clear enough, -t is for tar not zip an require a spec file inside. http://linux.die.net/man/8/rpmbuild but if you want more
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/ro/Fedora_Draft_Documentation/0.1/html/RPM_Guide/ch11s02.html

Thanks,
