since your rpmdb is defined as: $installroot/var/lib/rpm

Where is this definition? A config file? Hard coded in the rpmmodule.so?

dbPath is set to conf.installroot and /var/lib/rpm is implied?


the definition is somewhere in rpm. It's just one of rpms many
'features'.

if you set dbPath separately then you can change it's destination, yes.

The dbpath is set by %{_dbpath} macro in rpm configuration, but /var/lib/rpm might be hardcoded in a few places if dbpath is not set at all.
