I tried to install mysql on centOS following this digital ocean guide.
I ran the following commands;
wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql80-community-release-el7-3.noarch.rpm md5sum mysql80-community-release-el7-3.noarch.rpm sudo rpm -ivh mysql80-community-release-el7-3.noarch.rpm sudo yum install mysql-server The first 3 commands execute successfully. However, the installation fails with a lot of dependency issues. I have gone through a lot of similar problems online, including this platform, but I've had no luck with solving mine.

3: I mistakenly tried to install the el8 version at first. When I realized I had made a mistake, I did this;
sudo yum remove mysql80-community-release-el8-1.noarch yum clean all after which I confirmed that the old packages were gone;
yum list | grep mysql

I have no idea why I still can't install mysql, even after getting rid of the wrong package and clearing cache. Any ideas?
