The EL php53 package does not "Provide: php" so any other package depending on that being present will fail to install without force. This may or may not be a show-stopper in any particular environment. There is also no php-mcrypt available in the base CentOS updates and this is a matter that upstream will not fix; it is, however, available from EPEL for those that need it. There used to be a number of other issues with the base php53 packages as supplied by TUV but many, if not most, of these have been since resolved. I no longer track the issues as I've long since moved to IUS for php requirements. As Brian pointed out earlier IUS is the go-to source for php53 / php54 packages that work. Please see: http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories for more information. There is also a yum-plugin-replace add-on from IUS that will permit single transaction migration from stock php packages to the IUS provided php53u packages. Information is available at the IUS website. John -- We're not ending the journey today, we're completing a chapter of a journey that will never end.
