I tried installing php-pgsql using yum, but this is what I got
Code:
[root@kbnweb Include]# yum install php-pgsql

yum list shows that the currently installed PHP is version 5.1.6:
Code:
php.i386 5.1.6-3.el4s1.10 installed
php-cli.i386 5.1.6-3.el4s1.10 installed
php-common.i386 5.1.6-3.el4s1.10 installed
php-gd.i386 5.1.6-3.el4s1.10 installed
php-mysql.i386 5.1.6-3.el4s1.10 installed
php-pdo.i386 5.1.6-3.el4s1.10 installed
Why did yum ask for PHP 4.3.9-3.26, while the version installed is in fact PHP 5.1.6?
I have downloaded php-pgsql-5.1.6-3.el4s1.10.i386.rpm.
Is it safe to force yum to install from the downloaded file instead? What the worst could happen?
