Yes, you should. If you leave out the path, PHP uses a MySQL library shipped
with the PHP source code. You should have gotten a warning after the
./configure for PHP, explaining
Hello mysql,
I've installed the MySQL from RPM version 3.23.32. Then, I install
also php4.04 from source with option --with-mysql without giving the
path-to-mysql information. It works so far but I get the following
information when using the phpinfo() :
mysql
MySQL Support enabled
