![]() This would require acquiring a src.rpm and extracting it as explained in other answers, then rebuilding it. If you create an RPM that prefixes all of its paths with /home/me (or some other path you own), then it would work. So unless your username has access to all of the paths an RPM installs to, then it would certainly fail. Most paths on that hierarchy are almost always operating system paths and not user paths. RPMs install using a list of instructions provided in a specification file (.spec) that usually follow the Filesystem Hierarchy. ![]() BUT assuming you could actually start the install process. I think the "real" answer to "installing" an rpm without root privilege is, you can't. ![]()
