Why I would need apt-server for a client installation is beyond me.
perl-XML-LibXML is not on the RH9 CD's. Go fish. I could install it from CPAN, 
but then it wouldn't be in the RPM database, and would still break the 
apt4rpm install unless I --force it, which I really don't want to do.

# rpm -ivh perl-XML-LibXML-1.53-1.i586.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        perl-XML-SAX is needed by perl-XML-LibXML-1.53-1
        perl-XML-LibXML-Common is needed by perl-XML-LibXML-1.53-1

I know, that's probably the wrong one, but it was the only one I could find.  
The project degenerated from there into "unable to find..." errors in the 
bowels of perl, and I decided to quit before I made a mess that I couldn't 
clean up. I've already got rpm's that won't install because they are already 
installed, and won't uninstall because they aren't installed.
