installing akmod from rpm?

is it possible to install a kmod from provided rpm(s)? (all the coprs for the module i need are dead/404d)

when trying to install in the rpm-ostree module, it does not install due to being run as root:
[14:03:36 g.i/t/apple-dots:latest] => #44 15.19 Building /usr/src/akmods/macbook12-spi-driver-kmod-0.5-1.fc41.1.src.rpm for kernel 6.12.9-200.fc41.x86_64
[14:03:36 g.i/t/apple-dots:latest] => #44 15.19 ERROR: Not to be used as root; start as user or 'akmodsbuild' instead.


and the akmods module doesn't seem to take rpms regardless


p.s. the module is https://github.com/almas/macbook12-spi-driver , with a .spec i bodged together to build the three rpms
