Running Smart Package manager as non-root

I am building my own binary RPMs for an internal project. What I want to
do is let YUM manage the normal system wide packages and then use smart
strictly as a manger of these internal RPMs that individuals can install
on their machine in directories they own and keep up to date as they see
fit. We won't be using it for any of the standard repositories only
in-house channels.

Thanks
