How to get rid of 'cd' before %prep in spec file

Hi All,

I have an RPM/spec related question.
The spec listing (and listing of /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.36085) is below.

When I try to build an RPM from this spec, I get the following:

[root@mddinstall SW_EMAIL_GW]# rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/
test.spec
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.36085
+ umask 022
+ cd /tmp/test-4.7.0.0.99/output/BUILD
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.36085: line 21: cd: /tmp/test-4.7.0.0.99/output/
BUILD: No such file or directory
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.36085 (%prep)

RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.36085 (%prep)
[root@mddinstall SW_EMAIL_GW]#

My question is:

How can I instruct the rpmbuild command not to do the 'cd /tmp/
test-4.7.0.0.99/output/BUILD' before the execution of the %prep
stanza ?

Thanks,
Ron.

P.S.: /tmp/test-4.7.0.0.99/output/BUILD is my $RPM_BUILD_ROOT.
