You shouldn't need to.

If you have php3 (not php3-cgi) installed:
  - Install php3-mysql;
  - Ensure that the line
    extension=mysql.so
    appears in /etc/php3/apache/php3.ini
  - Stop & re-start apache.

If you're using php3-cgi:
  - Install php3-cgi-mysql;
  - Ensure that the line
    extension=mysql.so
    appears in /etc/php3/cgi/php3.ini


HTH,
