How to enable BCMath CentOS 6

How would I go about installing/enabling PHP bcmath module on CentOS 6?

I've tried 'yum install php-bcmath' and got this error:

   Error: Package: php-mysql-5.3.3-26.el6.x86_64 (base)
       Requires: php-common(x86-64) = 5.3.3-26.el6
       Removing: php-common-5.3.3-23.el6_4.x86_64 (@updates)
           php-common(x86-64) = 5.3.3-23.el6_4
       Updated By: php-common-5.5.6-1.el6.remi.x86_64 (remi-php55)
           php-common(x86-64) = 5.5.6-1.el6.remi
       Available: php-common-5.3.3-26.el6.x86_64 (base)
           php-common(x86-64) = 5.3.3-26.el6
       Available: php-common-5.5.5-2.el6.remi.x86_64 (remi-php55)
           php-common(x86-64) = 5.5.5-2.el6.remi
  Error: Package: php-gd-5.5.6-1.el6.remi.x86_64 (remi-php55)
       Requires: libgd.so.3()(64bit)

It looks like there are some dependencies I am missing yet I am not too clued up on how to go about installing these. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks in advance.

Ouch. Looks like you've got dueling repos there. The problem is that you've got 5.3 and 5.5 packages (looks like remi 5.5 repo). 5.3 is installed (Removing: php-common-5.3.3-23) but that repo probably doesn't have php-bcmath so yum went to remi and found it there, but that package says it needs 5.5 installed so yum is stuck trying to take out 5.3 and install 5.5 instead, but 5.5 has some other dependencies not satisfied.

So, a couple of options

  1. Just upgrade PHP to 5.5. You might need the base remi repo to do that (I bet that libgd library is in there)
  2. Turn off the remi 5.5 repo (edit /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo and set enabled=0 on the 5.5 repo). If you're not going to 5.5 you don't need it enabled anyways.
