It seems it don't work for ocaml libs,
there's not xtmpl in the results:

$ urpmf --requires ocaml-xmlm
ocaml-xmlm-devel:ocaml-xmlm[== 1.0.2-1.mga2]
ocaml-xmlm:ocaml

$ urpmf --requires --literal 'pkgconfig(ocaml-xmlm)'

could you give a wiki link that explains how to do this?

with a search I found:
urpmi.update --no-ignore "Core Updates Testing"
but nothing with the name "Sources" in it.

urpmf --requires /usr/lib/ocaml/xmlm/*

no "xtmpl" in the answer too
