Are there any RPM-packaged applications that

    1) work when you install an RPM in a weird location

and

    2) can be installed, without root privileges, under, say, /usr/local or
/opt if those directories are writable by the installing user but /usr isn't? 
(Or that can, when installed *with* root privileges, handle a system with a
read-only /usr mounted from a server and a local and writable /usr/local or
/opt?)

If so, how do they accomplish that goal?
