All you needed was a rpmbuild --rebuild procps-3.2.0-1.src.rpm Then rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/$ARCH/procps-3.2.0-1.$ARCH.rpm --oldpackage
[...]
but installing the source rpm also yielded the 3 patch files in /usr/sources/redhat/SOURCES:
procps-3.1.15-misc.patch procps-3.2.0 procps-selinux.patch procps-3.1.15-nostrip.patch procps-3.2.0.tar.gz
should i have applied any of theese patches?
Using the rpmbuild command above applies all the patches for you.
