As everyone seems to suggest go with the CentOS SRPM rather than the MySQL AB one. In the past when i rebuilt the MySQL AB one (on CentOS 3.5) it does not install and setup permissions as expected (i had to copy the configuration from the centOS one). There was also the mysql client library hassle. Don't forget the "old passwords" gotcha and remember to backup your existing db.
It takes ages so get the Godfather DVD and watch it :)
