Did you read "man rpm"?

Code:

 --relocate OLDPATH=NEWPATH
              For relocatable binary packages, translate all file paths that start with OLDPATH in the pack-
              age relocation hint(s) to NEWPATH.  This option can be used repeatedly if several OLDPATH's in
              the package are to be relocated.
