Let's install phpMyAdmin.

[root@test6 ~]# yum -v install phpMyAdmin

Yum resolves the 'php(language)' dependency with the highest available package, php56u-common, and adds it to the transaction.

--> Processing Dependency: php(language) >= 5.2.17 for package: phpMyAdmin-4.0.10.5-1.el6.noarch
TSINFO: Marking php56u-common-5.6.2-3.ius.centos6.x86_64 as install for phpMyAdmin-4.0.10.5-1.el6.noarch

Yum gets confused trying to resolve the 'php-json' dependency.

After evaluating the options, yum decides that php-common is the best choice.

TSINFO: Marking php-common-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64 as install for phpMyAdmin-4.0.10.5-1.el6.noarch

But yum is wrong! It added a package (php-common) to the transaction that has a conflict with a package already in the transaction (php56u-common).

--> Processing Conflict: php56u-common-5.6.2-3.ius.centos6.x86_64 conflicts php-common < 5.6
php56u-common conflicts with php-common-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64

Error: php56u-common conflicts with php-common-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64

But wait, there's more! phpMyAdmin requires php-common, and while yum resolves this to the closest match for the require, there are other packages that provide it.

~]# repoquery -q --plugins --whatprovides php-common | grep php56u
php56u-common-0:5.6.6-1.ius.el6.x86_64
< more versions >

let's try excluding php-common:

~]# yum install phpMyAdmin --exclude php-common --exclude php-*

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Still some unmet deps... just in case yum stopped resolving the transaction before they were all resolved:

~]# repoquery -q --plugins --requires phpMyAdmin | grep php | while read require; do PROVIDER=$(repoquery -q --plugins --whatprovides "$require" --qf="%{name}" --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=rackspace-rhel-x86_64-server-6-ius| sort -u); [ -z "$PROVIDER" ] && echo "nothing provides $require" ; done
nothing provides php-php-gettext
nothing provides php-tcpdf
nothing provides php-tcpdf-dejavu-sans-fonts

I suspect this would be resolvable with a php56u-php-gettext and php56u-tcpdf + subpackages.
