I am trying trying to install RMySQL on Centos 6.7 however I am not very experienced with server stuff so bear with me. I use this command
sudo yum install mysql-devel However I keep getting the following output
--> Running transaction check ---> Package mysql-devel.x86_64 0:5.1.73-5.el6_7.1 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: mysql = 5.1.73-5.el6_7.1 for package: mysql-devel-5.1.73-5.el6_7.1.x86_64 --> Running transaction check ---> Package mysql.x86_64 0:5.1.73-5.el6_7.1 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: mysql-libs = 5.1.73-5.el6_7.1 for package: mysql-5.1.73-5.el6_7.1.x86_64 --> Running transaction check ---> Package mysql-libs.x86_64 0:5.1.73-5.el6_7.1 will be installed --> Processing Conflict: mysql55w-5.5.47-1.w6.x86_64 conflicts mysql < 5.5 --> Processing Conflict: mysql55w-libs-5.5.47-1.w6.x86_64 conflicts mysql-libs < 5.5 --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: mysql55w-libs conflicts with mysql-libs-5.1.73-5.el6_7.1.x86_64 Error: mysql55w conflicts with mysql-5.1.73-5.el6_7.1.x86_64 Now I assumed I had to replace the package so I tried the solution present here
yum install yum-plugin-replace yum replace mysql-libs --replace-with mysql55w-libs yum install mysql55w mysql55w-server (Processing Conflict: mysql55w-libs-5.5.36-3.w6.x86_64 conflicts mysql-libs < 5.5)
However I get that "Package 'mysql-libs' is not installed" message, even when I use the exact version name (mysql-5.1.73-5.el6_7.1.x86_64)
Anyone has any tip about how to solve this?
