I am trying to install a package on a RHEL4 box, the package is non-relocatable.
I need it at a custom location because there are some other applications which need to be linked to it.
So I wonder if it is possible that to install the package to the default location, then remove it with the -e -repackage option and during this step make it relocatable.
If this can be done can you please specify what options should I be using?
If this is not possible can you please specify some other way?
Why do you say that relocatable packages are deprecated? Do you have a URL or source for that? – Fredrik Wendt – 2015-08-14T08:57:26.357
2There is no reason whatsoever to claim that "relocatable packages are deprecated". This is false. – Al Onestone – 2016-03-22T16:16:19.680
Relocatable packages are "strongly discouraged" but not depreciated. – fpmurphy – 2018-10-25T03:50:01.930
