I need to remove a previous version of mysql and install the newest. When trying to remove the previous version it complains about dependencies . I don't know what to do about it, so I end up with a successful install of the new version. Any help would be appreciated rpm -e mysql-3.23.36-1 error: removing these packages would break dependencies: mysql = 3.23.36 is needed by mysql-devel-3.23.36-1 mysql = 3.23.36 is needed by mysql-server-3.23.36-1 mysql is needed by php-mysql-4.0.4pl1-9 libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by mysql-server-3.23.36-1 libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by perl-DBD-MySQL-1.2215-1 libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by php-mysql-4.0.4pl1-9 libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by rpm2html-1.5-4 Raymond -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
