It means that you have to install libdb-4.1.so before Apache because it
depends on it. You can get it here (and remember that site, you'll
probably need it more):

It is possible that you get an error which looks like the one you have
now, simple look for the package(s) you need and fullfill rpm's needs
(or switch to Debian and let apt-get fullfill *your* needs).
Note that this is a Redhat related question which is not directly
related to Apache so it's offtopic here and I for one personally don't
take plesure in giving advise about Redhat (been there, tried to do it,
switched to Debian). It's just that I'm a nice guy .. today ..

Try reading the rpm manual ("man rpm" and take a weeks leave to study
it) and otherwise try the Redhat website or a Redhast related newsgroup.
