~ -> rpm -qlp ~ftp/pub/libxml/libxml2-devel-2.2.5-1.i386.rpm

  The packages are built for /usr this is a common policy when
shipping RPMs I'm not gonna break, rebuild locally from the tar otherwise

~ -> ls -l ~ftp/pub/libxml/libxml2-2.2.5.tar.gz

  no, the -devel is generated as the same time as the normal package in
a single pass

  they are, make sure you get them from
ftp://xmlsoft.org/ or ftp://rpmfind.net/pub/libxml (same machine)

they should be signed with my GPG key available on my home page at rpmfind
~ -> rpm --checksig ~ftp/pub/libxml/libxml2-2.2.5-1.i386.rpm
/serveur/ftp/pub/libxml/libxml2-2.2.5-1.i386.rpm: md5 gpg OK
~ -> rpm --checksig ~ftp/pub/libxml/libxml2-devel-2.2.5-1.i386.rpm
/serveur/ftp/pub/libxml/libxml2-devel-2.2.5-1.i386.rpm: md5 gpg OK
