Or should I make myapp depend on a specific release/epoch/whatever ?
(sounds like a bad idea)
Or change the php-pecl-json version to 1.2.1.myapp ? (bad idea too)
Or provide a php-pecl-json-myapp package ?

From what I can read, it's not possible to package a php app in centos 5
so that it may be installed with either php or php53, is it ?
So should I provide 2 packages: myapp and myapp-php53 ?
My app also needs json.
The official centos php53-common package "provides" php-pecl-json (1.2.1),
but php-common does not.
So, and since I can't use EPEL, I need to provide my own php-pecl-json
package, with version 1.2.1, and a dependency on php < 5.2.
And to make myapp depend on php-pecl-json.
Then, when I try to yum install myapp (not myapp-php53), it tries to
install php53-common, because it is a valid provider of php-pecl-json.
And as it also tries to install other php (5.1) dependencies, it crashes
because of the conflict between php-common and php53-common.
So what is the correct way to make myapp (not myapp-php53) depend on
php-pecl-json, and not on php53-pecl-json ?
Thanks,
