perl-DBD-MySQL installation problem
 

Hello Everybody,

I have been using fc3 with MySQl-3.23 for a long time now. I now want to update to MySQL-4.1.14-0. I did the following,

1] I Removed all MySQl components, by unmarking the whole of mysql database options in Application-->System Settings-->Add Remove Applications

2] Then I installed the following rpm's:
MySQL-client-4.1.14-0.i386.rpm
MySQL-devel-4.1.14-0.i386.rpm
MySQL-server-4.1.14-0.i386.rpm

3]Next, I moved on to Install perl-DBD-MySQL, I tried the following versions:
perl-DBD-MySQL-3.0002-1.i386.rpm
rpm -i perl-DBD-MySQL-2.9007-1.i386.rpm

But, only to find a lot of dependency issues.....
I have been struggling with this for the past 48hrs....
How, am i suppose to proceed now, AnyBody Please guide me....
Any input regardsing the matter is a welcome.
