Hey, I recently just tried to upgrade mysql from the e-smith 5.0 default of 3.23.36 to the latest release 3.23.43 using the Mark Fleeson how-to for e-smith 4.x (I emailed him and he thought it should work). On step 1 (i.e. rpm -iv --force MySQL-3.23.39-1.i386.rpm) I get:
failed dependencies:
MySQL conflicts with mysql-3.23.36-1
MySQL-server conflicts with mysql-server-3.23.36-1
Has anyone tried and successful upgraded to the latest release of mysql under e-smith 5.0? I'd like to get it done before I setup and mysql intensive scripts which would have any chance of being messed up when upgrading at a later date.
