I'll repeat myself a little : https://www.redhat.com/mailman/private/rpm-list/2004-March/msg00041.html Using /opt/mydirectory is doable using relocation. You need to use Prefix (note this *is not* %_prefix) as the hint to tell rpm it is locatable and ensure no path layout dependancy. http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm-snapshot/ch-rpm-reloc.html has some docs. RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX If you are using --prefix to relocate then there is RPM_INSTALL_PREFIXn (where n = 0 .. no. or prefix invocations).
