Hello fellow CentOS users,
until now I was using CentOS 5.5 with php 5.3 through this file:
# grep -v ^# /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Testing.repo [c5-testing] name=CentOS-5 Testing baseurl=http://dev.centos.org/centos/$releasever/testing/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://dev.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-testing includepkgs=php*
Today I have updated to CentOS 5.6 by running "yum update" and only after that (mea culpa!) I've noticed at http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS5.6 -
6.2. New packages in 5.6 that were not present in 5.5 bind97 hplip3 php53
Do you think it is safe to remove /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Testing.repo and run "yum update" again or will my Drupal 7 site burn and die?
Unless you have an exclude=php* or exclude=php53 in your CentOS-Base.repo, you likely have already upgraded.
The php53 rpms in the updates directory are php53-5.3.3-1.el5_6.1.src.rpm wich is newer than the version that is in testing (php53-5.3.3-1.el5.src.rpm)
If you do this, you can see which version is installed:
rpm -qa php53*
You will likely see packages with "el5_6.1" in the name.
