I am trying to upgrade mysql package to 5.5 on centos. (amazon image - ami-cc5af9a5)
There is 5.1 version of mysql-libs that can not be uninstalled because postfix is dependent upon it. But I can not upgrade to 5.5 version unless I uninstall this 5.1 lib version of mysql.
# rpm -qa | grep -i mysql mysql-libs-5.1.61-4.el6.x86_64 # rpm -e mysql-libs-5.1.61-4.el6.x86_64 error: Failed dependencies: libmysqlclient.so.16()(64bit) is needed by (installed) postfix-2:2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.x86_64 libmysqlclient.so.16(libmysqlclient_16)(64bit) is needed by (installed) postfix-2:2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.x86_64 mysql-libs is needed by (installed) postfix-2:2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.x86_64 Can someone let me know how to uprade to MySQL 5.5 without affecting the other packages? I have downloaded rpm's because yum install / upgrade does not work since it has 5.1 version built-in.
