You likely do not want any of the RPMs that were there, though I do have some of them on our build server. I would HIGHLY recommend that you either use the 5.1.6 security patched c5 main tree php ... OR ... use the php53 from c5. If you absolutely HAVE to have 5.2.x, I would recommend these: http://rpms.famillecollet.com/ (he has a 5.2.17 version, the latest 5.2.x version) I am pretty sure that they (php.net) are not releasing security updates for the 5.2.x series any more. Therefore, your best bet is to use either the 5.1.6 version from c5 (Red Hat backports security updates to this, so from a security standpoint it is better than 5.2.17) ... OR ... use the php53 from c5.
