Perhap's there is a problem with the RPM-Database. I don't know how rpm works internaly, but it
controls somewhere in a "database", which packages are installed on the system.
On an old SuSE-System I can search, to which package a file belongs
rpm -q -f /usr/lib/libbz2.so
bzip2-1.0.2-103
Here I see, that libbz2.so belongs to the bzip2-Package.
The other way is to list the files belonging to a package:
rpm -q -l bzip2-1.0.2-103
/usr/bin/bunzip2
/usr/bin/bzcat
/usr/bin/bzip2
/usr/bin/bzip2recover
/usr/include/bzlib.h
/usr/lib/libbz2.a
/usr/lib/libbz2.la
/usr/lib/libbz2.so
/usr/lib/libbz2.so.1
/usr/lib/libbz2.so.1.0.0
During the installation/update-Process, I think, rpm looks up, all dependencys mentioned
in the rpm if they are installed on the system via the "database" where it logs,
what is installed.
Try if you can get a package to which your /usr/lib/libbz2.so.1 belongs.
The other way is, to install the rpm-Package without depdency-check's, but this
could result in the availability of the pxlib-Package, but it perhaps does not work.
You've to test this, before you keep the package.
"rpm -Uvh --nodeps"
This should ignore the dependencies and install the package.
