Thanks,

Ugh, stop doing this. You are NOT doing what you think you are. What are the features in 2.4 that you need but don't have in 2.2? please list them here...

If you really want to do the wrong thing, that is absolutely NOT recommended then you need to satisfy those dependencies by installing the appropriate RPM packages via yum / rpm.
