If you install PHP from the RPM, you'll need the php-mysql RPM as well.

Also, if this is a production system, or one reachable from the internet,
you should be using the latest version (4.2.2) which fixes a vulnerability
in earlier version.  I don't think there's an RPM available yet, but it's
not that difficult to build it from source.
