+I want to look at the source code.  I was expecting that command 
+line to install (unpack) the source code into /usr/src/RPMS/ but 
+maybe --install-src compiles and installs *from* source code?  
+
+Either way, what is the approved method of looking at the contents 
+of a *.src.rpm file?  An RTFM is perfectly apropriate here - as 
+long as it includes a link to the FM.
