It depends on your OS. Many come with the libraries installed already.
libxml-ruby is a Ruby binding to the libxml2 library, so it absolutely
has to be there for things to work. Since you have gotten it to work,
then you had the libraries already. (Or you're on Windows, in which
case the libxml2.dll may have been bundled with the gem)
