Problem
I'm installing an RPM on RedHat Enterprise Linux 5 and it fails with the following error:
error: Failed dependencies:
rpmlib(PayloadIsLzma) <= 4.4.6-1 is needed by vspd-1/43-rsmu.i586
Question
Which package contains rpmlib? I've tried:
yum install rpmlib //didn't exist
yum install rpm //already installed
yum install rpm-devel //not the right one
I've looked around for the answer to this question and all I've found is...
...people looking for the answer to this question!
Like on this forum and a dozen others. I've successfully installed this RPM (VSPDL) before so I know the answer exists and someone probably knows it. I just don't remember which package magically fixed the dependency.
All suggestions are appreciated,
thanks.

I hope this helps whoever it is that favorited this question,
Finally got google to give me better results. Per this forum and this experts exchange response (scroll to the very bottom),
It's not a problem of rpm versions--it's just flat-out not supported: The RPM has been produced with LZMA payload compression which is not supported by RHEL (CentOS).
My only option is to compile what I'm trying to install, from source (which is available in a tarball) or to use a different rpm. Although the rpm I'm using says it's for "Redhat, Madriva, SuSe, Ubuntu, Gentoo," it's not actually for the Enterprise version of RedHat.
I'm going to try my luck with the RedHat 9, i386 RPM and if that doesn't work, I'll compile the source.
