[WBEL-users] yum update going no where

[Alon]

Hi All,

For the past couple of hours I've tried to run:

yum update

but all I'm getting is:

:/etc/httpd/conf # yum update
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: White Box Enterprise Linux 3.0 - i386 - Base
Server: White Box Enterprise Linux 3.0 - i386 - Released Updates
Finding updated packages
Downloading needed headers
Resolving dependencies
.....Unable to satisfy dependencies
Package MyODBC needs libmysqlclient.so.10, this is not available.

As for my yum.conf  Here it is:

I have myql version
# mysql --version
mysql  Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.23, for pc-linux (i686)

and I don't want to downgrade it. For whatever reason I'm being prompted 
with d/l of version 3.2.3 libraries
if I uncomment the mysql section.


If you have a better configuration, please let me know.
I'm running DirectAdmin on my box.
