i'm having a hideous time updating mysql here. i downloaded all the
packages from a ftp mirror when i read about the php/mysql update. php
installed fine, although i had to rpm -e the old packages before i installed
the new. (i won't get into this any more. it's been discussed)
but
due to my problems with mandrakeupdate dumping the core when i try to run it
on all my machines, i have to dl packages manually and install them with
rpm.
when i goto install MySQL, i get lots of error messages:
[root@web transfer]# rpm -Fvh MySQL-3.23.31-1.1mdk.i586.rpm
file /usr/bin/mysqlbug from install of MySQL-3.23.31-1.1mdk conflicts with
file from package MySQL-client-3.23.23-1mdk
[root@web transfer]# rpm -Fvh MySQL-client-3.23.31-1.1mdk.i586.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by MySQL-client-3.23.31-1.1mdk
[root@web transfer]# rpm -e MySQL-client
error: removing these packages would break dependencies:
MySQL-client is needed by MySQL-3.23.23-1mdk
MySQL-client is needed by MySQL-bench-3.23.23-1mdk
[root@web transfer]# rpm -e MySQL-3.23.23
error: removing these packages would break dependencies:
MySQL >= 3.23 is needed by perl-Mysql-1.22_15-3mdk
[root@web transfer]#
i can't seem to get the new packages to install or the old ones to
uninstall. what am i missing here? i don't have rpm package manager
installed on my servers (high security). prehaps that would help? what is
the name of the rpm to install for that?
'preciate the help.
