Hi!

Maybe I'm just dumb and all, but how do I use rpmdrake, and especially
it's search functions?  I wanted to install dpsftp.  To install that,
rpmdrake asked whether I'd like to install some missing packages, like
libxml (as an example).  Okay, so rpmdrake found out that I have an old
pacakge of libxml installed and it also noticed that a newer package of
libxml is available.  But why can't I find libxml somewhere in the
package listings?  I clicked on that looking glass, and a window popped
up asking me what I'm looking for.  So I entered ".*xml.*" and "xml"
and clicked on ok.  Next rpmdrake told me that it cannot find any
packages matching what I entered.

How comes?  I mean obviously rpmdrake noticed that I need libxml, IOW:
it found a newer libxml package in its database, has it not?  But why
can't I find a newer libxml?
