Hello,
Does someone know if there's a cacti rpm available that works (=installs and doesn't conflict) when "php53" rpm is installed, instead of the older "php" rpm ?
cacti rpms from rpmforge/dag have these requirements: php php-mysql php-snmp
Hey,
Yep, I know I can create my own version of cacti, but I was trying to avoid exactly that :)
Thanks for the heads up about rpmforge mailing list, I wasn't aware of it.

Not being a PHP developer, I was under the impression that many/most of these packages were interpreted scripts which probably would work fine under php53 vs. the php installed by default. I have been wondering from afar about this thread and the discussions over in the EPEL list, if someone could create a meta rpm that required php53 and provided php (and similar for php-mysql & php-snmp) and have the system continue to work. This is of course under the assumptions of: a. the packages are interpreted scripts b. the syntax has only added, and not changed or removed functionality since the stock php.
Is this a not_bright idea in the php package world?
That should work, yes. "php53-php" perhaps..
