rpm --rebuild gives error/unknown option


WTF>>> rpm --rebuild gives 'unknown option --rebuild'
also rpm -bb gives the same 'unknown option'.
I'm logged in as root.
Since when is --rebuild an unknown option????
using FC4 tring to build src.rmp for dsniff.

hi,
building binary rpm from source requires rpmbuild --rebuild srcrpmname
creating a binary rpm use rpmbuild -bb specfile
