New KB Question: CentOS 5.x/6.x mysql-lib conflicts and postfix

 

A new question has been posted to the Knowledgebase:

http://kb.askmonty.org/en/centos-5x6x-mysql-lib-conflicts-and-postfix
=======================================================================
On a fresh CentOS 5.x/6.x 32bit or 64bit install, mysql 5.0.xx is
installed. To install MariaDB 5.2.x rpms, mysql-lib needs to be removed
for MariaDB-server to be installed.

But removing mysql-lib via yum remove, removes postfix.

If later you need to install postfix via yum it still requires
mysql-lib, but installing mysql-lib installs mysql 5.0.x server again.

  yum install postfix
  Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit
  Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
   * base: mirror.averse.net
   * extras: mirror.averse.net
   * rpmforge: apt.sw.be
   * updates: mirror.averse.net
  Setting up Install Process
  Resolving Dependencies
  --> Running transaction check
  ---> Package postfix.x86_64 2:2.6.6-2.1.el6_0 set to be updated
  --> Processing Dependency: mysql-libs for package:
  2:postfix-2.6.6-2.1.el6_0.x86_64 --> Finished Dependency Resolution
  Error: Package: 2:postfix-2.6.6-2.1.el6_0.x86_64 (updates)
           Requires: mysql-libs
   You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
   You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Anyway to properly resolve this ? with MariaDB 5.2/5.3.x version of
mysql-lib ??

Thanks.
