Installation

NOTE: The rpm command does not support https.

EL 5

Step 1)

As root run the command:

rpm -Uvh http://updates.atomicorp.com/channels/atomic/centos/5/x86_64/RPMS/nucleus-release-1.0-19.el5.art.noarch.rpm

Step 2)

If you are using the Atomic repository you must add the line at the end of the [atomic] section in the /etc/yum.repos.d/atomic.repo file:

exclude=php*

For example, the atomic section would look similar to this:

[atomic]
name = CentOS / Red Hat Enterprise Linux $releasever - atomicrocketturtle.com
mirrorlist = http://www.atomicorp.com/mirrorlist/atomic/centos-5-$basearch
enabled = 1
priority = 1
protect = 0
gpgkey = file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY.art.txt
gpgcheck = 1
exclude = php*

Note: Do not change any other lines in your atomic.repo file. The above is just an example to show you where to put the exclude=php* line.
