Fedora Core 4 Dependencies Issue

I am trying to install PHP again after removing it. It seems that php-5 required php-pear, and then php-pear requires php-5. I'm going around in circles here. How do I install a package that requries another, which requires the package that I am initially trying to install?

I get the following errors:

[root@TankJr src]# rpm -Uvh php-5.0.5-2.1.i386.rpm
warning: php-5.0.5-2.1.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 30c9ecf8
error: Failed dependencies:
php-pear is needed by php-5.0.5-2.1.i386

[root@TankJr src]# rpm -Uvh php-pear-5.0.4-10.5.i386.rpm

I just installed php-pear using --nodeps and then was able to install php-5, but then when I try to install php-pear again without the --nodeps, it still gives me the error as listed above.

Why will not You use yum to resolve and install dependencies as well?
yum install php # or yum update php

You encountered those problems, couse You are using different versions (for php ans php-pear) - they should be from same version - either 5.0.4-10 or 5.0.5-2
