newer version of the parser installed,yet get the older one itlself,hows it possible?

Hi all,

I downloaded a XML parser lib from blastwave.org...
Its the "libxml2",but i am having trouble initializing it(or so it feels)...I kind of need it badly as the OSE version of the virtualbox 1.6.2 will not install unless i have one

The version was 2.6.3...
The min requirement from virtualbox was 1.6.23
But even after an installation when i try to install virtualbox it still show me that i need a higher version of libxml2.
I am very sure that i have downloaded the higher version,reason being that the download link states its a ver 2.6.3
So how do i counter this?

Is there a way to check the version of my newly installed parser?

Thanks

NAME
libxml - library used to parse XML files DESCRIPTION
The libxml library is used to parse XML files. Its internal document repesentation is as close as possible to the DOM (Document Object Model) interface, an API for accessing XML or HTML structured documents. The libxml library also has a SAX-like interface, which is designed to be compatible with that of another XML parser library called expat. NOTE: SAX, the Simple API for XML, is a standard interface for event-based XML parsing, developed collaboratively by the members of the XML-DEV mailing list, currently hosted by OASIS. The expat library is a XML 1.0 parser written in C, which aims to be fully conforming. It is currently not a validating XML processor. The libxml library now includes a nearly complete XPath implementation. The XPath (XML Path Language) is a language for addressing parts of an XML document, designed to be used by both XSLT and XPointer. The libxml library exports Push and Pull type parser interfaces for both XML and html. FILES
