Hi lenzai,

We build against the latest version of libxml2 available in RHEL.  On
RHEL 5, this is currently 2.6.26-2.1.2.8.  Can you verify what version
of libxml2 you have installed?  The command would be:

[root@el5-64 ~]$ rpm -qa | grep libxml
libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2.8.el5_5.1.x86_64
libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.8.el5_5.1.i386
libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.8.el5_5.1.x86_64


Additionally, if you are seeing this libxml2 version via PHP, please copy and paste the 'xml' section (search for libxml2) and paste that here.  On this system I just tested (RHEL 5.6) I verified that the version is also 2.6.26 via phpinfo().

With regards to the version itself...  libxml2 is something that a lot
of critical pieces in RHEL rely on... including Yum.  Definitely
something that RedHat needs to ensure stability on... so making big
version jumps just won't happen.  Actually, they've been at source
version 2.6.26 since Jun 06 2006 from looking at the changelog:

* Tue Jun 06 2006 Daniel Veillard <veillard@xxxxxxxxxx> 2.6.26-1
- upstream release 2.6.26 see http://xmlsoft.org/news.html
