I guess you didn't install sybase with an RPM then. If you didn't, RPM
won't know about the library. Is that the case?

If so, there are a few options:

1. Try to find an RPM for sybase and install that
2. Create a dummy RPM for sybase containing all the files and install
that
3. Create a dummy RPM for sybase containing nothing but with Provides:
libsybdb.so
4. Install the PHP RPM with --nodeps

I'd put these in descending order of preference.
