Note you'd use --prefix at install time rpmbuild -ba shiva-test.spec rpm -ivh --prefix /opt/varma shiva-test*rpm See http://rpm.org/max-rpm-snapshot/ch-rpm-reloc.html for a slightly dated overview of relocatable packages. For more recent book the Red Hat RPM Guide may cover relocatable packages - but you'd have to check.
