Installing php-mysql *adds* a module (shared library in this case).  It
is much like the way Perl extensions work: you install the base package
(perl-<versionmumble>.i386.rpm for example), and then you install the
addons you want.  Some are pure perl code
(perl-<packagename>-<versionmumble>.noarch.rpm) and some are C/C++
coded (perl-<packagename>-<versionmumble>.i386.rpm).   Same with php.
