I've installed Percona Xtradb server but in order to install it I had to remove "mysql-libs.x86_64" package and now I'm not able to install any package that depends on it (postfix, Nagios mysql plugin etc).
# yum install postfix

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I've checked and "Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-shared" package provide newer libraries .18 but postfix requires .16. What' s the best solution for this?
# rpm -ql Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-shared
/usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so
/usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so.18
/usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so.18.0.0
/usr/lib64/libmysqlclient_r.so
/usr/lib64/libmysqlclient_r.so.18
/usr/lib64/libmysqlclient_r.so.18.0.0

You need to install the shared-compat package. That'll provide the libmysql your distro expects. Works the same if you're running the latest RPMs from Mysql as well.
