>Description:
RPM 4.8.1 uses a strange default for the %{_var} rpm macro...
The bug was fixed in RPM 5.0.0, variables need to be expanded.

>How-To-Repeat:
$ rpm -qa
error: cannot open Packages database in /${prefix}/var/lib/rpm

>Fix:
./configure --localstatedir=/var
Will use /var/lib/rpm for %{_dbpath} like pkg-install expects.
