    The library libdb.a should be provided by db-5.3 (RPM)

    The AIX-rpm is a virtual rpm that reflects what's installed on AIX via BFF packages, and it's version is the same as AIX, so if it tells you it needs AIX-rpm<7.2.0.0, that means that the libgcc you're trying to install needs to be on AIX 7.1
