Hello Chris,

I'm glad everyone was able to assist you in getting mysql55 installed on your system,
as for the bug in 5.5.25 MySQL has released 5.5.25a which will be pushed to IUS stable on tonights sync.

By tomorrow all mirrors should be fully synced, you could then perform a 'yum update' or 'yum install mysql55'
to get the latest packages. If you wish to be ahead you could grab them directly from our testing mirrors 
(I would recommend waiting on the sync for easy updating however):
