Hi

I'm using smart with OpenPKG (www.openpkg.org) which builds an rpm-based
installation of a list of packages where the installation root is not /.

I have patches to make smart work in this environment (thanks, it works very
well!), but have one feature request:
If I package a relocatable RPM with a root directory of e.g. /opt and then try
to use smart to install the package in an environment with a different RPM root
(e.g. /openpkg) 

This is equivalent to using the "rpm --prefix" option.

Yes, this is different than using the "rpm --root" option via the "rpm-root"
config option.

Thanks :-)

Conrad
