You seem to have the rpmforge repository installed, because the package in the base repositories is called perl-DBD-MySQL (note the mixed case MySQL).
and got replaced because the default install of yum-priorities doesn't check_obsoletes. base package perl-DBD-MySQL was indeed obsoleted by the rpmforge perl-DBD-mysql a few weeks ago. I fear a lot of people got caught by this without guard. I wonder why rpmforge did this.
