rpm dependency, where is rpmlib?

4 Feb 2002

      Hi all,

I'm trying to load libxml2 via rpm. Here's what I do, and what the
computer replies with:

c344469-d:/tmp # rpm -i libxml2-2.4.13-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 is needed by libxml2-2.4.13-1
        rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 is needed by libxml2-2.4.13-1

It seems I need to install "rpmlib" first. I don't see it on the SuSE CD
set (6.4), nor in the support database. I assume it's part of another
RPM. Any suggestions?
