You didn't type that. You typed: rpm -U php-4.3.6-5.i386.rpm

The error message means that php-ldap, php-mysql and php-odbc packages are
installed already which depend strictly on php-4.3.4-11. Since you want to
upgrade the php package to 4.3.6-5, this would break the dependency of the
other packages. You must erase them or upgrade them together with the php
main package. And all provided that your newer php packages are fully
compatible [with the rest of your distribution and any other
dependencies].
