Within the next few days I will be moving php 5.0.4 into the atomic channel, this will undoubtably cause all sorts of chaos and strife. The packages themselves have been done for months, the problem with 5.0 is that it uses a different php.ini, and the new architecture introduces some key changes to the packaging, notably GD, PEAR and SOAP have been separated into their own rpms. This is such a major change, that I've considered skipping 5.0 altogether and going with 5.1. I realize that this is a disruptive change for folks, which is why I've waited so long. I can say that I've been running 5.0 on production servers since PSA 7.0 without any major issues. That being said since this is an extra clumsy upgrade, I wanted to give everyone ample warning in advance.
Update: Check out the new PHP Project page Here.

I did a yum -y update . .and noticed when it was done that httpd didn't work.
I had to edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf and change the php4 references to php5 and install php-devel. httpd started but none of my Joomla sites work.
I hope I can fix it before my clients notice.

I managed to get httpd to start but couldn't get any of my Joomla sites to run until I went nuts installing php modules:
yum remove php-manual
yum install php-mbstring php-pear php-xmlrpc pph-imap php-xml php-dba php-snmp php-ldap php-ncurses php-mhash php-odbc php-pgsql php-soap php-bcmath php-imap
restarted httpd.. nope..
looked in log file.. I see references to php4.
Looked in /etc/php.ini.. there was a line with php4.
I changed this line:
extension_dir = /usr/lib/php
to this line:
extension_dir = /usr/lib/php/modules
When I restarted httpd my sites worked again. Somewhere in that frantic installation/editing fixed it :)

Heh, its almost like you read the PHP project page where it tells you to replace php.ini and php.conf :P
