Hello. I just got a dedicated Fedora Core 1 box at my ISP. It is
'up to date' according to up2date and yum, but I know there are newer
versions of some things, such as PHP(which I need to upgrade for
security reasons), and MySQL(I want 4.x, not 3.x). These products were
installed using the standard RPM packaging method. I can't find newer
RPM's for php, and I'm thinking other packages may be the same way--
what's the recommended way to upgrade a box that an RPM doesn't exist
for the newer version(yet?)? Maybe there are RPM's somewhere I'm not
looking? I've tried rpmfind, and php's own site for a php upgrade, and
found none.

I've always had bad luck trying to wing this sort of thing(libary
version problems, etc.), so I figured I'd ask some people that work
with FC regularly... Thanks.
