Upgrading To PHP 5.2 on CentOS5

Turns out the dorks who make CentOS5 don't trust PHP5.2 yet or something. Someone should issue them the memo -- it's stable and comes with a lot more than PHP5.1, including the new Filter API.

Well, turns out I wasn't alone when I was struggling with trying to upgrade to PHP5.2 from 5.1. Here's an article I found that solved the problem right away. In a one liner, it's:

wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic | sh ; yum update

as root.
