rpmbuild likes to pass many of its own options to configure, including
many that set bindir, libdir, etc. explicitly. Try setting _prefix
instead of passing the prefix as a configure_options. For example:
rpmbuild --rebuild --define '_prefix /tmp/bogus'
openmpi-1.3.3-1.src.rpm

I'm trying to build an RPM of 1.3.3 from the SRPM. Despite typical
RPM practice, I need to build ompi so that it installs to a
different directory from /usr or /opt, i.e. what I would get if I
just built from source myself with a --prefix argument to configure.
When I invoke buildrpm with the --define 'configure_options --
prefix=<desired path> ...', the options do get set when the building
process gets kicked off. However, when I query the final RPM, only
vampirtrace has paid attention to the specified --prefix and wants
to place its files accordingly. How should I alter the .spec file
(or in some other place?) to get the desired behavior for the final
file locations in the RPM?
Thank you for any help.
