Description:
I want to installausing:
rpm -i --relocate

But I have the error that it is not relocatable. Is there any solution?
How can I do it?

How to repeat:
rpm -i --relocate /usr=/tmp/usr mysql-community-server-8.0.24-1.el7.x86_64.rpm.rpm
        path /usr in package mysql-community-server-8.0.24-1.el7.x86_64.rpm is not relocatable

So the answer is: no, right?

Indeed, we don't support relocation of rpms.

If you need such feature please consider to use tarball option.
