Upgrading PCRE 6.6 to 7.x

[brendanr]

Centos 5.3
Art Php 5.2.9
PCRE 6.6
PSA 9.2.1

Hi,

I'm hoping someone can help me... I need to upgrade my version of PCRE from version 6.6 to 7.x to work with Php 5.2.9. I noticed ART seems to have v7.3 here:

http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/packages/pcre/

I've tried "yum update prce" and "yum upgrade pcre" but it reported that there were no available packages.

I even tried:

Code: Select all

wget http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/packages/pcre/
rpm -Uvh pcre-7.3-1.art.src.rpm 

and recieved:

Code: Select all

error: cannot create %sourcedir /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES

So how would i go about upgrading to latest version without disrupting Php?

Kind Regards,
Brendan
