Hi Jim,
Hmmmm. That is interesting, because I believe that we are to have a
different release of phpMyAdmin than what is listed on your error.

Can you show the output of this command on your system?

# yum repolist

Yikes! OK, well that is your problem. Notice that you have some repos
that do not belong on a BlueOnyx system: epel, extras, updates.

Recommendation: remove those repos from your YUM configuration, do a
yum clean all, then yum update.

The version of phpMyAdmin you should be receiving is that which is
included from the "BlueOnyx-520XR" repository. You should not be
attempting to yum in a package from external sources, as that is
unsupported.

As noted in the readme for BlueOnyx YUM repos:
------------------
Do NOT tie your server into third party YUM repositories UNLESS they are
certified for BlueOnyx.

Third party YUM repository servers (*especially* RPMforge!) replace
onboard RPMs with versions that conflict with BlueOnyx. That will then
break the GUI and will cause service outages.

The damages that this will cause may not be easy to repair.
------------------

True, that!

Thanks Michael and Chris for the responses. This is a new box with no
customers on it yet that I have been experimenting on so I will re-install.
Looks like I tried to take the easy route to get the spamassassin, clamav
milters installed ;-)

Wait... the easy route? That would be to purchase AV-SPAM and run the
GUI-based install. Done in 5 minutes, and you get the integrated
BlueOnyx controls. Doesn't get much easier than that! ;)
