    Perhaps you should just force install your new library instead of first
trying to remove the other ones.  If mod_php really needs the older
versions of the library, you could uprgrade it also to a newer,
compatible version; but usually there's no problem because of library
versioning: mod_php will continue to work even if you install a new
library version because the old version will be kept, just the main
symlink will point to the newer one.

    But it is always wiser to check if SuSe don't have a newer version
available, even if you have to buy the last CDs again.
