The root cause of your problem is this

The easiest "fix" is to add --noparentdirs to disable dependencies of
files on their parent directories when installing.

One can also add the directory skeleton to a package
(distros usually do this in a "filesystem" package), or
for your chroot-in-homedir usage case, create the
list of directories in the file tree skeleton in (this
is the default path, can be changed through configuration)
     /etc/rpm/sysinfo/Dirnames

I'd also suggest (if working with --root) to configure

     #       Open all indices before doing chroot(2).
     #
     %_openall_before_chroot 1

in ~/.rpmmacros or wherever else is convenient.
