I'm trying to update the version of PHP on my CentOS server to 5.3.8. However, when I run "yum update php" I get a a slew of file conflicts between mysql-libs and mysql. I've tried uninstalling mysql-server, mysql-devel, and mysql-client and then reinstalling all of them, but when I do that mysqld won't start and isn't writing any errors to /var/log/messages or anywhere else that I can find. I know it's a recent problem as I didn't have this problem back in July/August. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
Here's what my console looks like:
[root@ip-10-123-23-54 ~]# yum update php
