php update for Centos4

Unread post by arisk »

I am trying to update php to at least 4.3.11 (requested by modernbill)
I am currently running 4.3.9

I am on CentOS4 using yum (just installed) with ART's atomic channel.

I first run
#yum info php

It lets me know 4.4.2 is avilable on repo=atomic.

I then try
#yum update php

get a bunch on output
then
Processing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.9 for package: php-ncurses
Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.9 is needed by package php-ncurses

Whats my next step?
I was under the impression yum resolves dependancies.
How do I do this?

(Also: I read in swsofts forums that I should change /etc/redhat-release to RedHat Enterprise Linux EL4 (nahant) and have done that)
Is that correct?

What would the process be for getting php 5+ BTW?
Is it not available on the ART channels anymore?

You need to remove the php-ncurses rpm, my 4.4.x tree doesnt separate that into another package. The 5.0 (look in atomic-unstable) and 5.1 (atomic-bleeding) packages do break that back out into its own package like the 4ES/FC4/FC5 designs do.

Thanks Scott.

So.
#yum remove php-ncurses
then I should be able to go ahead with
#yum update php
?
