What version of rpm are you using.  With 4.2 I do relocatable packages all
the time.  You are setting your Prefix, and using that int he package, so 
it looks like your doing the right thing.

OT, so if I wanted to provide ace libraries to an app is this the only 
file I need?  We build ace at my work also (only its not relocatable), but
I end up packaging up lots more than that, but only because I really don't
know what the absolute minimum is.
