I'm not sure about Mandrake, so I couldn't say, I installed from
source, and I have it installed.  You might want to check the
'provides' options for an RPM package, there is a query you can
request that will do that for you, I think it's something like:

  rpm -ql <rpm file>

And you should get a list of all the files. You might want to see if
there is maybe a php-DB or similar package if the php-devel package
doesn't supply it.
