Plesk uses stock PHP (one of the smarter things about Plesk) so you
can pretty much play around with it. The problem here is indeed the
fact that php53 from RH doesn't "Provide" "php" (other repos have this
fixed, ius etc).
What I advised wouldn't have "horribly" broken his setup; fixing it
would've been as simple and fast as uninstalling php53 and
reinstalling old php 5.1, 1 minute job.
