I have tested the latest php update rpms and they work fine over
here. Once the php-mysql module gave me difficulties (it commented
itself out in the /etc/php.ini file), but the other times it did not
(I still haven't figured this one out).
Realistically, you should not have to uninstall anything. Simply
update the PHP rpms, and then double-check your /etc/php.ini to make
sure that all the modules you have installed are uncommented. Then
restart Apache to ensure that everything gets loaded fresh and you
should be fine.
