I am trying to use yum, or rpm to install ( by default ) jenkins @ 
/opt/jenkins
and not /var/lib/jenkins. But when i try to :

$rpm --prefix=/opt/jenkins -ivh jenkins-1.656-1.1.noarch.rpm
error: package jenkins is not relocatable

I get error, is there a way to easily install jenkins in other locations ? 
I read on stackflow, that someone installed it on /var/lib and then 
manually moved all directories to custom location, and
pointed env variables to the new location, but that seems too much manual 
work and prone to error, 

Jenkins being used by millions i would assume have the BASIC ability to let 
the user choose a location, plus keeping the easily upgradable option 
working, right ?

Anyone having a solution please post

Thanks,
-Kamal.
