Upgrading MySQL from 3.23.41 to 3.23.53a

[Rick Root]

I would like to upgrade MySQL to the latest production release (3.23.53a) from my current 3.23.41

I have the following packages installed already:

mysql-devel-3.23.41-1
mysqlclient9-3.23.22-6
mysql-3.23.41-1
mysql-server-3.23.41-1

What do I need to do in order to upgrade to the newest version? I tried using the RPM facility to install and upgrade the new packages I just downloaded but I get conflicts... ie...

[root@frodo MySQL]# rpm --install MySQL-3.23.53a-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
MySQL conflicts with mysql-3.23.41-1
MySQL-server conflicts with mysql-server-3.23.41-1
[root@frodo MySQL]# rpm -U MySQL-3.23.53a-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
MySQL-server conflicts with mysql-server-3.23.41-1
libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by mysql-server-3.23.41-1
libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by perl-DBD-MySQL-1.2216-4
[root@frodo MySQL]#

So what should I do? Do I need to actually remove the old MySQL first and then install the new one?
