[CentOS] Missing dependencies

[Paul Malinowski]

Todd,

From my experience I can bet that there is only one or two packages which are source of all problems.

a) Try to upgrade yum first.
b) try to remove and install again php (copy config files if you have edit them)


You can also force upgrade, but that's not recommended (perhaps there is major reason why you have that problems)

It's hard to say. Keep a track on most importent packages on your system.

Paul -

There are more than the one I gave as an example.  What would you 
suggest for this list:

--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.15 for package: php-mysql
--> Processing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.15 for package: php-mbstring
--> Processing Dependency: libgcj = 3.4.5 for package: libgcj-devel
--> Processing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.15 for package: php-gd
--> Processing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.15 for package: php-pear
--> Processing Dependency: httpd = 2.0.52-22.ent.centos4 for package: 
httpd-suexec
--> Processing Dependency: httpd = 2.0.52-22.ent.centos4 for package: 
httpd-manual
--> Finished Dependency Resolution

And how do you think it got so out of date?  Out of sync?
