[Rpm-maint] Issue: "--rcfile" option can not work for rpm command in 4.8.0

[Bingel Tang]

Hi all,

Sorry to bother you!

I'm not sure is it a bug.

I'm working with rpm-4.8.0, and find that "--rcfile" option can not work,
please
see below to get detailed information:

******************************************************************
Environment:   RHEL6  Linux  (x86_64)

[root at rhel6 rpm-4.8.0]$/bin/rpm --version
RPM version 4.8.0

[root at rhel6 rpm-4.8.0]$/bin/rpm -q rpm      <<<< installed rpm-4.8.0-12 rpm
package
rpm-4.8.0-12.el6.x86_64

[root at rhel6 rpm-4.8.0]$cat /root/rpmbuild/rpmrc    <<< the rcfile
macrofiles:/root/rpmbuild/rpmmacros

[root at rhel6 rpm-4.8.0]$
[root at rhel6 rpm-4.8.0]$cat /root/rpmbuild/rpmmacros   <<< the macro file
%_topdir  /root/rpm

[root at rhel6 rpm-4.8.0]$/bin/rpm --rcfile /root/rpmbuild/rpmrc --showrc |grep
"_topdir"

Thanks!
