php xmlwriter

I've got a message that ext/xmlwriter is missing while trying to set up phpMyFAQ on my system of Fedora 15. I looked it up on the PHP manual and got this:

This extension is enabled by default. It may be disabled by using the following option at compile time: --disable-xmlwriter

I used yum to install PHP on my computer and consider recompiling PHP quite an unpleasant work. Can I just enable it by editing something, like php.ini? Or any other ways to accomplish this task without recompiling PHP? And how?

Running the following as recommended by netcoder worked for me

yum install php-xmlwriter
