For circular dependencies, you need to give rpms together in the same command like.,

rpm -ivh gtk2... cairo..  librsvg2.. 

liblzma.a comes from xz-libs rpm

We do not provide this version of rrdtool from AIX toolbox site.

From where did you get this version of rrdtool. Current latest version of rrdtool on AIX toolbox is 

rrdtool-1.7.0-6.aix6.1.ppc.rpm 

Also yum is the best way to install any package from AIX toolbox.
