CentOS - May 2010 - CentOS 5 and seamonkey

Has anyone had any success in rebuilding seamonkey 2.0.4 for CentOS 5 
(32-bit)?  I'm currently running seamonkey-2.0-1 which I rebuilt last 
November. Sadly, I have no idea where the SRPM originated.
I found  seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm and 
seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm, downloaded and got to 0th base:

    [rj at madeleine Downloads]$ rpmbuild --rebuild
    seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm
    Installing seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm
    warning: InstallSourcePackage: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 signature:
    NOKEY, key ID 57bbccba
    warning: user mockbuild does not exist - using root
    warning: group mockbuild does not exist - using root
    error: unpacking of archive failed on file
    /home/rj/rpmbuild/SOURCES/find-external-requires;4c000273: cpio: MD5
    sum mismatch
    error: seamonkey-2.0.4-1.fc12.src.rpm cannot be installed

So, have md5sum or cpio been changed?  Mine should be the latest from 
CentOS:

      [rj at madeleine Downloads]$ rpm -q coreutils
    coreutils-5.97-23.el5_4.2.i386
    [rj at madeleine Downloads]$ rpm -q cpio
    cpio-2.6-23.el5_4.1.i386

Or am I looking at the wrong thing?

BTW, the reason I'm after 2.0.4 is that a friend tells me that he's 
using 2.0.4 under Windows XP and that it does NOT have the problem with 
the email address completion that I see and that he also saw until he 
upgraded his.


Pointers, clues, URLs and remarks about my sanity are equally welcome at 
this point.

I'm curious as to why you want to rebuild Seamonkey at all.  You can
get the official 2.0.4 release directly from mozilla.org, and it comes
in 32 and 64 bit versions (AFAICT).  You can also get mainline and
beta sources from them, if you really want to build it yourself, but
there's no need or that.

I'm running Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686
(x86_64); en-US; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100317 SeaMonkey/2.0.4 from the
seamonkey-2.0.4.tar.bz2 I downloaded from mozilla.org.  Works fine on
my Athlon II X4 system.

Caveat: I've had an issue with both Seamonkey and Firefox for a long
time now because they both have a tendency to lose audio-video sync on
flash videos after the browser has been running for a long period of
time, usually a day or two.  I have a bugzilla report in to them, and
it's not fixed yet in the latest releases of either one.

HTH.

I rebuilt it for x86_64.
The SRPM initially came from a link on the seamonkey web site, I think.

you can grab it here - it should be there in an hour when the server syncs:
