I always thought that this should work:

	[dag@lisse dag]$ rpm --initdb --root $HOME
	[dag@lisse dag]$ rpm -Uhv --root $HOME --nodeps gurlchecker-0.3.10-0.dag.rh90.i386.rpm 
	Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
	   1:gurlchecker            ########################################### [100%]
	error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/bin/gurlchecker;3ea88bc1: 
	cpio: open failed - Permission denied

Now I have one illusion less. ;)
