Hi,

I am new to this list.

I have developped an application using libxml2 (from inside php) on Linux.  
Now, the application needs to be ported to the production machine which is a 
Sparc running Solaris.  The sysadmin asked me how to install libxml2 on this 
machine.

  Your sysadmin should learn to read an FAQ :-)
     http://xmlsoft.org/FAQ.html#Compilatio

Apparently, there are two packages, libxml2 and libxml2-devel, which must both 

 1/ Notice the word "package"
 2/ libxml2 is not packaged for Solaris (yet ...).
 3/ You will have to recompile from the sources.

Simply grab the libxml2 tar.gz (ftp://xmlsoft.org/), unpack and run
  ./configure --prefix=...
  make
  make install

And no there is no libxml2-devel tarball because the libxml2 and libxml2-devel
packages are generated from the single libxml2 tarball.
