The former yes, the latter no. rpm >= 4.1.1 is what you tried to installed
following the Fedora Legacy documentation.

You can also install everything at once, i.e. add the "yum" and
"libxml2-python" packages to your original command-line. Sometimes you
must install multiple packages at once to resolve circular
dependencies. But in your case, you just need to start with upgrading RPM
and friends:

rpm -Uvh
http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/rpm-4.1.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \
http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/rpm-python-4.1.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \
http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/popt-1.7.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \
http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/updates/i386/gnupg-1.0.7-14.i386.rpm
