Given this i build my rpm using the following command
rpmbuild -bb --buildroot /opt/src/Opensource/lighttpd-1.4.28/install  lightppd.spec
rpm -qpi  on the generated rpm gives me the following output

I get the rpm installed 

but i dont see any installtion directory or files installed in the location /opt/components

Check out http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/s1-rpm-reloc-wrinkles.html, in particular the first bullet that says "files in the %files section should start with the prefix tag line".

Try prefixing your file names in your %files section with '/opt/src/Opensource/lighttpd-1.4.28/install', rebuild the rpm and then try the installation again.
