Step 1
Source Depot Type : Local Directory
Source Hostname : your machine
Source Depot Path : /tmp/patches/depot
Step 2
Mark all bundles you want to install.
Step 3
Install
Since you have created a depot, the system may reboot only once, depend what you install. Remember that if you have any kernel patches, the system will for sure reboot. If you do have some kernel patches, make a copy of your kernel first.

NAME
spectool - manual page for spectool v1.0.10rpmdev1
SYNOPSIS
spectool [<options>] <specfile>
DESCRIPTION
Spectool is a tool to expand and download sources and patches from specfiles.
If you experience problems with specific specfiles, try to run
rpmbuild --nobuild --nodeps <specfile>
on the file which might give a clue why spectool fails on a file (ignore anything about missing sources or patches). The plan is to catch
errors like this in spectool itself and warn the user about it in the future.
