Hi,
 
Just verified in my environment: works there as well!!By the way: --noparentdirs is necessary. Otherwise there are complaints about missing
depdencies for directories. Did not find any hint in man page or --help output.
 
Thx,
Stefan

Here is the test case I used (with the patch):




+ rpm=rpm
+ pre=/tmp/most
+ opts='--noparentdirs --dbpath /tmp/most/var/lib/rpm'
+ pkgs='most_if-1.0-1.i686.rpm most-bin-1.0-1-req-1.1.i686.rpm'
+ rm -rf /tmp/most
+ mkdir -p /tmp/most/var/lib/rpm
+ rpm -Uvh --noparentdirs --dbpath /tmp/most/var/lib/rpm --relocate /=/tmp/most most_if-1.0-1.i686.rpm most-bin-1.0-1-req-1.1.i686.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        most_if = 1.1 is needed by most-bin-1.0-1.i686

Thanks for poking me again to look, this fix most definitely needs to be in rpm-5.0.1.
