Hi Jose Luis, welcome to DragonFly. About your problem; the package you are trying to install is called py25-libxml2 (or py24-, py23-). If I don't know the name of a package I normally end up browsing http://pkgbox.dragonflybsd.org/packages/DragonFly-2.3.0/All/ and finding how it is called and then using that name for pkg_radd. I'm sure there are better ways of doing it, but this one definitely works.
