Do rpm -qa --nosignature | grep -i mysql and see what old libraries you
have lying around. Specifically look for the devel libraries/packages.
Remove the 3.x versions via RPM and make sure you've installed the
relevant -devel package from MySQL 5.
You can also use the MySQL 5 -shared-compat package to replace the
shared libraries needed by other apps in Fedora, although you may have
to do an "rpm -e --nodeps" to get rid of the currently installed library
prior to installing -shared-compat due to file conflicts. I always like
to test that this has worked tho (typically testing one of the apps in
the packages rpm moaned about when doing a normal "rpm -e" (sans
--nodeps) or by trying to rpm -e the newly installed -shared-compat just
to make sure it is providing the correct deps at least!

Be warned tho. If you use custom aggregate UDFs in MySQL 5 it the
current version will segfault on you. I tore my hair out over this.
Upstream MySQL have been pretty crap at responding or releasing
something that I reported months ago. The fact they removed all the
daily snapshots has not helped me help them to fix it either.

I had to stick with 5.0.27 for now.
