I have some chef recipes referencing the package php53u. It seems that at the time the recipes were written, the package was available in ius repo, but now it seems that package php installs version 5.3.3 and there is no php53u package at all. Can I force yum to use old version of repository so that the package can be found?
Can I force install of a package delete from yum repo?
yum
Can I force yum to use old version of repository so that the package can be found?No you just kind of have to go based on what the repo has available. If they got rid of that package then that's all she wrote. You may try using google to find an IUS mirror repo that is still available but hasn't been synced in a while. That's kind of laborious but it may work.but now it seems that package php installs version 5.3.3 and there is no php53u package at all.I don't have much experience with IUS so I don't know what's different about this build than the standard RHEL build, but there's a php55u package currently available for EL6 and a php54 for EL5. Are either of those acceptable for your purposes?
