I did some more digging around and while I cannot extract the SPEC file into another file such as text, I can use rpmrebuild to view the SPEC file and edit it. So, with that being said, here is the command I used: rpmrebuild -e -p sampleBuild.rpm. F — Read the%files List From The -f option is used to direct RPM to read the%files list from the named file. Like the%files list in a spec file, the file named using the -f option should contain one filename per line and also include any of the directives named in this section.

Install rpmrebuild and extract the spec file of your rpm file or your already installed package.
Examples:

The spec file is not stored in binary rpms unless the packager specifically included it for some reason (and there's really no reason to do that). Izotope alloy 2 keygen pc. The only information you can get from a binary rpm is the information that
rpm -qi <package>
returns, and the files that rpm -ql <package>
lists. If you need more than that, you have to find the source package. If Google / the vendor's web site fails to provide that for you, there should be contact information provided in the Packager field for anything packaged by anyone competent. For example, here's a package that ships with RHEL and a package from a third party vendor:
There you have a website and an email address, respectively, where you could ask about a spec file or srpm file.

Per @RumpleStiltskin's answer, the original spec files are found in source rpms which can be extracted. To get the source rpms, run the following:
This will install the package to the current directory. To extract it run:
The
.spec
file will be in your current directory.
If you can't install yum-utils for some reason, look at the files in

/etc/yum.repos.d/
and look for sections referring to source rpm repositories. You can type in the values for baseurl
into your browser and manually search for the source package. Extracting the .spec
still requires rpm2cpio

spec files are usually not in rpm. They are in source rpm.

rpmrebuild is your friend. Use
As it opens up the spec file in an editor, you can also make changes to rpm spec.
