Fixed source archive creation: Instead of directly tarring hello.sh, I now create a proper directory structure hello-0.0.1/ with the file inside, which is what %setup expects.

Fixed the %install section: Changed cp hello.sh $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_bindir}/hello to remove the .sh extension as it's a more conventional name for executable files.

Fixed the %files section: Updated to reference %{_bindir}/hello instead of %{_bindir}/hello.sh
