The problem surfaced in March, and is part of the justification for
having all files depend
on their parent directory to avoid relocating orphan directory paths.
You can try reporting the bug against RHEL if you want the problem
fixed, that might work.
I may do that, although it seems at least for now, I'm relatively happy..
Otherwise, I'd suggest using --root (which will require root access
because of chroot(2)) to
install rather than trying to use --relocate as you are doing, that
is very likely to Just Work.
I don't really want to do that, because I want developers to be able to
install the rpms as non-root within their source tree (which is one of
the reasons I use relocatable rpms).
Now one bug I really do wish they'd fix soon is the one where
/var/lock/rpm/transaction is hardwired. That lock file belongs in the
database dir, IMHO - what's the point otherwise?
