Re: MySQL 4 or Higher

Well, I'm used to use MySql 4.x so I setup a yum repository at:

yum fedora-pri-testing http://yum.nopapers.org/fedora/1/testing

Remember to import the signature at:
http://yum.nopapers.org/fedora/1/testing/signature_for_up2date.txt

Basically you need to remove these packages:

perl-DBD-MySQL
php-mysql

then up2date -u if you allready have mysql3.x installed or:

up2date -i mysql mysql-server php-mysql4 perl-DBD-MySQL

and you are set...

I building other packages as well as squirrelmail-1.42 or phpMyAdmin..

You are pleased to use any or all of these rpms.

Phil
