The books you are using are probably outdated as installation
instructions tend to change from release to release.
Installation instructions are perhaps one thing that should
not be put in a book. Rather a book should tell you where to
find the installation instructions. The MySQL RPMS do adhere to
the FHS standard so that is not a prolem. Just use the --nodeps
rpm option until the next release of the RPM packages are out.
I have found no other problems with the rpms.
