FWIW, xmllint appears to be part of the base libxml2 package on Red Hat
(checked on RHEL6 and Fedora rawhide).

I'm not sure I'd phrase it like this:

+ This library and the <command>xmllint</command> tool it contains are
+ used for processing XML. Many developers will already

The library surely does not contain the tool; more like vice versa.
Perhaps "provides" would be a better verb.
