title: rpm installation fails due to depencency /bin/sh not found
body: <p>i am trying to install a package using rpm, for which i have created a different database using <code>rpmdb --initdb --dbpath $HOME/myrpmdb</code>  and specifying that path in the --dbpath while insatlling.
  The error i am getting is </p>
  
  <pre><code>root@jason:su rpm --dbpath $HOME/myrpmdb -ivh XXX.rpm
  error: Failed dependencies:
  /bin/sh is needed by XXX
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and /bin/sh exist
  Is there some way that i can specify this to the installer?
  Is there something i missed during the creation of different rpm database cause of which now it not able to fine the default commands?</p>
