How did you get the OpenPKG version of the rpm command in /usr/bin? It and
other OpenPKG user level commands should be under %{l_prefix}/bin where
%{l_prefix} is defined when you bootstrap OpenPKG. I wouldn't be at all
surprised if you had serious problems if you used /usr as your %{l_prefix}.
I would think that Red Hat rpm command is in /bin/rpm, but I've never done
more with RH than install it for testing, then go back to another
distribution (originally Caldera now SuSE).
