I imagine that those things aren't in your rpm database.  Given you seem
to be related to lfs have you done:

1) bootstrap machine
2) install rpm
3) create an rpm
4) install package - which fails

RPM will not know anything about your linux from scratch system, there
are various aproaches to solving this - look at the vpackage scripts in
/var/lib/rpm for hints how to bootstrap a package to provide the
necessary information.

If it's not this please give more details about your setup there.
