There are more conflicts, for example Postfix can report dependency problems. This is what I did to get MariaDB 10 installed in CentOS 6.3,

#include "disclaimer.h"
// I might have forgotten a step, and your system is not mine.
// Go figure...
  • Add a repo as described at the top of this page.
  • If PHP is going to be used on the same server (lord forgive if) run yum install php-mysql first.
  • Run yum install MariaDB-server , this will create conflicts, but the dependency packages are already downloaded and they are listed in the output, for example these where the ones I've got: 
       (1/10): MariaDB-10.0.1-centos6-i686-server.rpm     
       (2/10): audit-libs-2.2-2.el6.i686.rpm           
       (3/10): cracklib-2.8.16-4.el6.i686.rpm        
       (4/10): db4-4.7.25-17.el6.i686.rpm          
       (5/10): keyutils-libs-1.4-4.el6.i686.rpm       
       (6/10): krb5-libs-1.9-33.el6_3.3.i686.rpm        
       (7/10): libaio-0.3.107-10.el6.i686.rpm                   
       (8/10): openssl-1.0.0-25.el6_3.1.i686.rpm    
       (9/10): pam-1.1.1-10.el6_2.1.i686.rpm         
       (10/10): perl-DBI-1.609-4.el6.x86_64.rpm

They are all downloaded into the /var/cache/yum/x86_64/6/updates/packages and /var/cache/yum/x86_64/6/base/packages folder. Install them manually with rpm -i [package] , you have to find the right order yourself.

  • Install the MariaDB package with rpm -i --force MariaDB-....
  • Install the client package with yum install mysql-client .

Start the service and run the /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation .

Those where my two cents.
