Hello @dekkertjie and welcome to Trac.

This message is given when you are running on PHP 5.5 or 5.6 without the mysqli extension. This forces WordPress to use the deprecated mysql extension when connecting to the database. This not a bug in WordPress.

My advice would be to contact your host and get mysqli included in their PHP.

Please also confirm that WP_USE_EXT_MYSQL is not set in your wp-config.php file. If it is, you'll need to remove that setting.
