Topic: PHP 5.3+ SQLite2 dependency...
I'm wondering why the php-pdo package in the Remi repository has a dependency on libsqlite.so.0 (and subsequently the sqlite2 package, also provided by the remi repo).
Is there a specific reason that the php-pdo package requires the sqlite2 package from the Remi repo, or could it be rebuilt to use the CentOS'/Fedora's base SQLite package?
Specifically, the reason I ask is because I use the Remi and EPEL repos on some CentOS servers and use yum-priorities to help keep everything nice and clean while using 3rd party repos. I'd like use yum-priorities' check_oboletes flag for additional protection, however I think the CentOS base sqlite package claims that it "obsoletes" the sqlite2 package in the remi repo, so yum-priorities blocks the installation of the sqlite2 package, thus resulting in a missing dependency situation something like this:
[root@madeline ~]# yum install php php-pdo

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigestOf course, I can simply disable the check_obsoletes flag, or even the priorities plug-in and I'm fairly certain everything will install just fine, but I was just wondering if there's a reason it's set up like this or if maybe it's something that's simply gone overlooked that could be "fixed"?
Thanks!
