You don't :-)

Instead you manually download the latest libxml2 and libxslt from
ftp://xmlsoft.org/ and install the *tarballs* manually. Note: don't
install the RPMs.

Really? Why? (just curious)
I haven't had problems with it... (of course, the fact that I'm still running RH8 may have something to do with it)

You get those erros because you try to uninstall them and break the dependencies... I usually just do this:

 1) get rpms for libxml2, libxml2-devel, libxslt, libxslt-devel
 2) do

# change filenames where appropriate...
rpm -ivh libxml2-blah.rpm libxml2-devel-blah.rpm libxslt-blah.rpm libxslt-devel-blah.rpm


3) recompile XML::LibXML and XML::LibXSLT, either from CPAN or source

...and I haven't got any problems.

apologies if I'm really off.
