Hi sizemj,
note that the OP is trying to install a specific (and quite recent) version of MySQL.
On the contrary, the version shipped with the OS is usually quite old,
so yum install mysql-server will probably install an older version.

Yes your are correct. Missed that. I just saw that he was trying to install Mysql. Yum would install Mysql 5.1.61 if he is running Red Hat 6.3. He is trying to install 5.5. my mistake.
