Thank you for a problem report. Sorry, but you siply do not need both these RPMs (MySQL-shared-compat-5.0.20-0.rhel4 and MySQL-shared-standard-5.0.20-0.rhel4) now. As it is clearly stated on the downloads page (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html): "Shared compatibility libraries (3.23, 4.x, 5.x libs in same package)" It is a description for http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.0/MySQL-shared-compat-5.0.20-0.rhel4.*.rpm.

Hi, I suspected that'd be the answer. I should have noted the "suggested fix" to "make the documentation more explicit that you only need the compat package". :-) "Shared compatibility libraries (3.23, 4.x, 5.x libs in same package)" makes it unclear if there is more than one version of the 5.x lib(s). - ask

The presence of 5.0/5.1 libraries in the shared-compat packages was a bug, which has been fixed. (Bug#19288) I've revised the Linux RPM page to make it clearer that you do not install both the shared and shared-compat packages, and to indicate more explicitly which libraries are included in the shared-compat package: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/linux-rpm.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/linux-rpm.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/linux-rpm.html
