When trying to install php it requires a few of dependencies see below:
[root at gateway instl]# rpm -ivh php-4.1.2-7.1.3.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        mysql-devel is needed by php-4.1.2-7.1.3
        pspell-devel is needed by php-4.1.2-7.1.3
        ucd-snmp-devel is needed by php-4.1.2-7.1.3
        unixODBC is needed by php-4.1.2-7.1.3
        unixODBC-devel is needed by php-4.1.2-7.1.3

In order to install the devel that are require I have to install the main
packages.  
[root at gateway instl]# rpm -ivh mysql-devel-3.23.41-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        mysql [root at gateway instl]# rpm -ivh mysql-3.23.41-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        libreadline.so.4   is needed by mysql-3.23.41-1

Release 9 of readline is already installed, but It appears that release 9
cannot be upgraded to release 10.
[root at gateway instl]# rpm -Uvh readline41-4.1-10.i386.rpm

Does anyone have any suggestions in getting these packages in.  In other
words should I override or force the update?

Thanks
