Hi James,
I tried with --installroot, and it's not what I want. For example,
#yum --installroot=/opt install Soft_pkgs
#ls /opt
cache/ lib/ ...
(all yum stuff, not the software I needed.)
Thanks,
Erming

Hi,
Does anyone know about that how to specify root directory for yum
installation?
I tried with putting $_prefix in .rpmmacros, but it doesn't work.
And yum --installroot option seems not the solution too.
--installroot does specify the _root_ directory. If you want to
specify the --prefix, you can't do that.
