That did the trick. Thanks Ewald.
FYI, I used the '--nodeps' directive once I realized there were really no major issues.
I still needed to keep the added symlink since the px libraries couldn't find the libbz2.so.1.0 file.
Thanks again to all. That was great help. Victor

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.
