YUM not installing php-pecl-memcached on CentOS 6.5 with PHP 5.4

I'm having some trouble installing the Memcached (with a D) PHP extension using YUM on CentOS 6.5 with PHP 5.4. When I run yum install php-pecl-memcached I am presented with the following:

Loaded plugins: downloadonly, fastestmirror, replace
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * webtatic: us-east.repo.webtatic.com

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: php54w-common conflicts with php-common-5.3.3-27.el6_5.x86_64
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

I believe I understand the issue to be that the version of memcached in the YUM repo requires php-common-5.3 but I don't quite understand how to move beyond this issue or where to find a version compatible with my configuration.

Uninstalling php54w-common and then installing php-pecl-memcached should help to resolve the conflict:

yum remove php54w-common
yum install php-pecl-memcached

But, maybe you can use Software collections (available for CentOS) instead of that repo php54w-common comes from. There are both PHP 5.4 and 5.5:

but there are more PHP builds as well:
