You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.
[root@ns2 ~]#
 
I wonder why people never mention WHAT PHP - version they use, when they ask for suggestions... but never mind....

yum install php53-mcrypt
 
Hello this the result
[root@ns2 ~]# yum install php53-mcrypt?

Nothing to do
 
Well... in this case you have to compile it yourself or use repos, which contain the desired package.

Here is an example, to re-configure your current PHP - version... this example might vary, depending on your system configuration, so please use the "locate" - function, if you don't find folders or files.

HTML:
yum install php53-devel libmcrypt-devel gcc
mkdir /root/addons
cd /root/addons
wget ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/centos/5.11/updates/x86_64/RPMS/php53-common-5.3.3-26.el5_11.x86_64.rpm
mkdir /usr/src/redhat
rpm -i php53-common-5.3.3-26.el5_11.x86_64.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
bunzip2 php-5.3.3.tar.bz2
tar xf php-5.3.3.tar
cd php-5.3.3/ext/mcrypt
phpize
aclocal
./configure
make
make install
echo "extension=mcrypt.so" > /etc/php.d/mcrypt.ini
service httpd restart
 
Thanks very much for your help.
When I cd /root/addons
[root@server addons]# ls
php53-common-5.3.3-26.el5_11.x86_64.rpm
but afer
mkdir /usr/src/redhat
/redhat is empty

How do I run
rpm -i php53-common-5.3.3-26.el5_11.x86_64.rpm

and
bunzip2 php-5.3.3.tar.bz2
in
cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
 
This was just an example... please use your own specifications for folders. Consider using the LOCATE - function, to place manual configured packages, where all the others are placed as well:

Example:

locate SOURCES

... could locate folders on your system, with the name SOURCES in the folder structure.
