Issue
rpm install command, installs files all over the place like: /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /etc/, /usr/share
This way it's hard to figure out all the contents of the installation. Is it possible to force rpm to install everything in a single directory?
Solution
you can use the --relocate
to change 1 directory of the install process
rpm -i --relocate /usr/sbin=/some/other/path/sbin packagename.rpm
or use --prefix
for the whole installation process
rpm -i --prefix=/some/other/path/ packagename.rpm
