由于linux默认yum源安装的是php 5.1的包，
yum安装php以后查看
rpm -qa php
php-5.1.6-23.2.el5_3
由于有的程序需要使用php5.2以上的版本
于是就找起了资料，终于找到有介绍如下添加一个额外的源：
# rpm –import http://www.jasonlitka.com/media/RPM-GPG-KEY-jlitka
# gedit /etc/yum.repos.d/utterramblings.repo
或者直接修改/etc/yum.repos.d/utterramblings.repo 名字可以自己定义要以.repo结尾如abc.repo
在打开的文件中加入以下内容：
[abc]
name=Jason’s Utter Ramblings Repo
baseurl=http://www.jasonlitka.com/media/EL$releasever/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://www.jasonlitka.com/media/RPM-GPG-KEY-jlitka
执行yum update php 如图所示 ，
# yum update php
