When I try to build from a local source, it fails to find the source file.

Check the log file ;-)
That is simply because calling R2rpm -s without specifying --bioc or --cran leads to 'URL' tag in the spec.

Beware that running rpmbuild as root is problematic (been there done that). :-)
The easy part is to run it as normal user, either with your account or a new account. In order to set the directories layout you can create a ~/.rpmmacros files with the new directories.
The easier setup is just: $ cat ~/.rpmmacros %_topdir /home/<user>/rpmbuild/
with the <user> replaced by the users name.
