Yum seems to not detect any updates for phpMyAdmin. Upon installing, it installed a slightly outdated version, but no updates have been noticed since. Even though phpMyAdmin says "new update available,"

 yum update

doesn't include any update for PMA. Upon doing

 yum update phpMyAdmin

it says

Setting up Update Process

No Packages marked for Update

I have not found any documentation on this via the CentOS or phpMyAdmin sites.

Thanks!

phpMyAdmin releases won't correspond 1-to-1 to yum package releases. You have to wait for the CentOS repositories to release a new version of the package, or you can manually upgrade phpMyAdmin yourself.

  • Thanks for the answer. How will it know I'm up-to-date if I update manually? Will it screw up future updates?

    Well don't overwrite the 'official' files, i mean /usr/share/phpmyadmin and /etc/phpmyadmin . Maybe the best to remove phpMyAdmin rpm and install manually from phpMyAdmin site. That way you could avoid further confusion.

  • @rtainc - Manual update in this case means, as a better practice, rolling out your own rpm.

I found the latest version of phpMyAdmin in the remi repo:

rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm
yum --enablerepo=remi update phpmyadmin

for CentOS6. More info and instructions for different distributions in this link:
