Did you install MySQL 4.x using rpms, and not using any daft options
like --nodeps or --force? If so, yum should not be doing this.
Can you report the output of:
$ rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
on this machine?

Hi Paul:
Thanks for your response
I just installed straight up from the rpms -- it went quite smoothly as
well - this was a fresh rebuild of the server
Here is the output of that command
[root@srvweb-01 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
MySQL-client-4.1.12-1
MySQL-server-4.1.12-1
[root@srvweb-01 ~]#
What does "yum check-update" output?
Paul.
