I guess where it can get confusing is when a stock RH7.1 install with PHP
doesn't have mysql support enabled but postgresql is. To the uninformed
user like me who doesn't care to know the individual RPMS in the distro it
is easy to make that, obviously wrong, assumption when, by default, the
php-postgres RPM is installed.
On a lighter note, I am glad to know the php-mysql RPM is on the RH
discs...makes future installs a tad bit easier. Sorry for causing such a
stir,
