The rpm.rte is the base package to support RPM packages on AIX. Thus without it you would not have the command rpm ;-)

Since the toolbox packages are pretty out of date - IBM paids probably more for lawyers then for supporting the toolbox I suggest to get the the latest packages from
Michael Perzl. - http://www.perzl.org/aix/

He provides also the spec files and the documentation regarding the build environment.

Subject: [tbox-l] hi.where could I get c compiler for aix?

Dears,

Could you please tell me where could I get c compiler for aix? such as gcc-4.0.0-1.aix5.3.ppc.rpm and gcc-cplusplus-4.0.0-1.aix5.3.ppc.rpm.
I searched it on google. Most people said it can get from http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/p/os/aix/linux/toolbox/download.html link. But when I open it, it automatic redirect to
http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/p/os/aix/linux/toolbox/download.html

I download the rpm.rte , according to the readme, gcc should has been shipped into this fileset, right?

But I could not find gcc on this fileset:

bash-2.05b# lslpp -f rpm.rte
