Any package, or even ' rpm --rebuilddb' or 'rpm --initdb', even if the packages fails to install. It's makes me think it is a problem with the software. It is not exchanging variables. I know that it is not the packages fault and I've looked at all of the install rpm files that were editable in a text editor but could not find ${prefix} only %[[{prefix]]}} and similar. If I delete the folder then type rpm --rebuilddb then it creates a folder ${prefix}/var/lib/rpm and puts the data base files, *_db, in it. Thanks.
This is a bug in the build process of rpm itself. Rebuild rpm with explicit --localstatedir=/var to configure to work around it.
