That is quite weird. I'm not too sure I know how to explain it. I can
tell you that the 5x repo has newer versions of all the mysql and php
packages than 50. I verified that they are present there. The 5x repo
is our 'latest' SL 5 release.
Did you by any chance install packages from external repos? Perhaps
they depended on older versions of things and caused the issue.
