We provide them as standard Fedora rpm files to make installation easy for you. Is there some particular reason you think you need to roll your own, instead? If so, get ready for a very steep learning curve and a lot of frustration. I will back out of the way, if you're really just into learning to patch and build kernels. But, if you just want a talking Werewolf, that's much easier and we will help.
