More PHP fun!
I can see in the spec files that php-mcrypt support was removed by Redhat. I tried to find out why but I don't have sufficient access to redhat bugzilla. I am wondering if it is actually necessary as I have also run across a post or two that indicates applications that rely on mcrypt still work with the new php53.
Perhaps mcrypt was superceded by another module or PHP core code?

Yeah, I had the same problem with missing php_mcrypt. ;) I did a full rebuild of php53 with patched spec so that it produces php53_mcrypt but that is not very elegant. The more elegant way to do it is to make an rpm for only the missing modules like EPEL's "php-extras". So I'm interested in this, too.

Another possibility is using what IUS has already done and installing php53u packages. See the following CentOS forum thread for details: https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&topic_i...
