What is the best way around this problem:
Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package php53.i386 0:5.3.3-13.el5_8 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: php53-common = 5.3.3-13.el5_8 for package: php53 --> Processing Dependency: php53-cli = 5.3.3-13.el5_8 for package: php53 --> Running transaction check ---> Package php53-cli.i386 0:5.3.3-13.el5_8 set to be updated ---> Package php53-common.i386 0:5.3.3-13.el5_8 set to be updated --> Processing Conflict: php53-common conflicts php-common --> Finished Dependency Resolution php53-common-5.3.3-13.el5_8.i386 from updates has depsolving problems --> php53-common conflicts with php-common Error: php53-common conflicts with php-common You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: package-cleanup --problems package-cleanup --dupes rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I ran yum remove php. Should I have done more?
rpm -qa |grep php |grep -v php53
and remove (that is rpm -e) everything that is php (and not php53).
RHEL5/CentOS5 comes with both php (which is php5.1) and php53 (which is php5.3.something).
You can't nor do you want to have both!
