Did you init the rpm database inside the --root?

 hi,

 sorry, I don't find any other mailing list to submit my questions.

 I am trying to setup a build root so I need to install rpm package to
 a different root directory.

  rpm --root=/home/cjia/workareas/rpm_root/fc8_root/ -ivh
 setup-2.6.10-1.fc8.noarch.rpm
 warning: setup-2.6.10-1.fc8.noarch.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature:
 NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2
 Preparing...###
 [100%]
1:setup  ###
 [100%]
 error: unpacking of archive failed on file /etc/aliases;47d1b91c:
 cpio: open failed - Permission denied

 Why it is still trying to write to /etc/... ?

 Thanks,
 Neo
