I just installed CentOS linux and then downloaded the MySQL tar file to install MySQL. I extracted the 6 enclosed rpm files, and clicked on the -server rpm file to install it. But I get the following dialog box error:
Failed to install file
Two packages provide the same name.
This is usually due to mixing packages from different software sources.
When I try to run install it from the linux terminal, I get the following more specific log, which seems to indicate a conflict with mariadb:

Error Summary
-------------
How can I resolve this error?
I am brand new to linux though I have been using MySQL in windows for a long time. This is a completely new installation of linux, and this is the first software I am installing, so the only pre-existing software I can imagine would be something bundled in CentOS 7. Apparently MariaDB is preinstalled in CentOS 7, but how do I handle this?
I found this bug report on the oracle web site, but I don't know what to make of it, as I am brand new to linux.

Yes, it is. Just as two MySQL instances can coexist. MariaDB is still a drop-in replacement. By port or by different socket path, and install MariaDB to a non-standard directory.
Within the same base version (for example MySQL 5.5 -> MariaDB 5.5, MySQL 5.6 -> MariaDB 10.0 and MySQL 5.7 -> MariaDB 10.2) you can in most cases just uninstall MySQL and install MariaDB and you are good to go. There is no need to dump and restore databases.
Yes, it is possible to replace MySQL with MariaDB. MariaDB is considered to be a drop-in replacement for the corresponding MySQL version (i.e MariaDB 10.2 and MySQL 5.7). Please review feature differences between MariaDB and MySQL to make sure the switch won't affect applications using database server.
Stumbled upon this while encountering the same error. While I did not have any mariadb libs install it seems the issue was that I had mysql client 8.0 installed. Once removed, I was able to install Mysql server 5.7.

Following worked for me.
$yum shell
remove mariadb-libs
run
exit and then install MYSQL RPM package.
Got idea from following post https://serverfault.com/questions/613366/install-mysql-on-centos7-with-rpm
