I don't see the problem here. I just tested this and it works fine. The drupal6 package only requires php 5.2 or greater. This is out of the drupal6-date.spec file Requires: drupal6 >= 6.0, drupal6-cck, php >= 5.2 You can get php52 or php53 from the IUS repository. Install the IUS repo from http://iuscommunity.org/ http://wiki.iuscommunity.org/Doc/ClientUsageGuide Install the yum-plugin-replace package and follow the instructions. ps. Somewhere there is a dozen people in a Red Hat conference room reading this list laughing their heads off. Don't give them more fuel. The CentOS team will get 5.6 out soon enough.
