here some pacakges is of qmail toaster.....
if i answered yes to uninstall then above toaster pakages will also get uninstalled but i need to update php 5.1 to 5.3.. without effecting the above toaster packages.

please provide me some step how to update php5.1 to 5.3 without effecting above toaster packages...

Why are you trying to remove php 5.1 instead of just upgrading PHP which should also upgrade/resolve its dependencies?

---------- Post added 06-22-12 at 09:28 AM ----------

You can add the atomic repo and do a yum upgrade php...

NOTE: Your mysql will probably be upgraded as a dependency of PHP! When it does make sure to run the following command after yum upgrades the packages:

thanks...
