<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Depending
on who packaged things up and why, the RPM may not be “relocatable”
using the built-in features. It’s kind of a rarely used thing, actually,
and I know on the Fedora side you’re actively discouraged from making use
of it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>If
you need everything residing under a single directory, it might be best just to
use it from the tarball. (Or if there’s a site requirement, roll your own
RPM.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
