If you are running the PHP 5.3 (php53-*) packages on RHEL/CentOS 5.9 and try to install the phpmyadmin package from CentOS Base or RPMForge, you will get messages about installing the ancient PHP 5.1 packages. This was not what I wanted to happen, so I looked for a ready made phpmyadmin package that would work with PHP 5.3. I was prepared to install from a phpMyAdmin tarball, but I hoped to avoid that because an official package would stay up to date with patches.
It wasn't well publicised but the answer is to add the EPEL repository by downloading the epel-release RPM from here and installing that. After that you can do yum install phpMyAdmin3 (case important). This is the package you want.
