I've tried, but haven't been able to get it installed using standard centOS packages because of php MySQL extension misalignments. The PHP extension required MySQL 5.1, but I installed 5.5. If you get a path to installing it, I'd be interested especially if you can get sphinx compiled along with it.

Installing from source: http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.5/installation.html#installing-percona-server-from-a-source-tarball
Percona doesn't provide the Sphinx Storage Engine, but includes it, as example, in their "installing from source" reference above.

Your choices are:
1) Pull and replace all required packages for PHP and PHP-MSQL using the EPEL or REMI repo to replace them (as in this example):
http://www.andresmontalban.com/update-centos-5-php-5-1-to-php-5-3/ being sure to change the last line to "# yum –-enablerepo=remi update php php-* mysql"
Then build your source including Sphinx.

2) Pull and compile from source php to mysql with mysql-devel included.

Have you tried to just use the Percona repo and install their binaries (won't provide Sphinx of course) but it's sweet?
