OK, I bit the bullet - after having to sort out a problem with 
installing the dev tools on F18, I got gem2rpm to produce the spec file 
for devise and following the instructions at:

   http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package

produced a lot of stuff but no SRPMS or RPMS - the issue seems to be:


error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
/usr/share/gems/gems/devise-2.2.4/.gitignore
/usr/share/gems/gems/devise-2.2.4/.travis.yml

Where to from here?
