Yum Install Kernel doesn't show in BUILD or SPEC

Hello,

This is from Centos 5.5 so I apologize to anyone who may be offended.

I installed my system and it came with kernel 2.6.18-194.el5. I installed the src.rpm of this kernel with rpm, patched, and built it. Then I did a yum -y install kernel.i686 which installed kernel-2.6.18-194.32.1.el5.centos.plus.src.rpm. Since this was a yum install, why doesn't this new kernel version show in the BUILD and SPEC directory?

Did you do it this way?
