 New Comment:

Yes, you're quite right, we should be using the libmcrypt-config script
if it's available..

Assigning to myself, will look into this sometime soon.

hi guys,

just in case anything goes on out there: 

I GOT IT!

short description: download libtool and install it.
this will make php-configure recognize -lmcrypt as valid.

story:
the REAL problem was not having an error while compiling mcrypt with
php, it was more likely that i did not have the libtool-library
libltdl.* on my system!

i downloaded libtool-1.4.3, configured it and ran a make install and
THEN php was fine with libmcrypt!

the only thing i've to say is: PLEASE, if you add a -ltdl within any
configure script, let the configure script CHECK FOR IT and generate
ERROR messages to the user if it's not found on the system. i spent
very much time (yes, my fault but....) to figure out this stuff! this
would not have occurred if your configure script told me that we need
ltdl to compile our stuff!


thx for support and cu,
md.

ps: you can close my bug-reports.

Please *DO NOT* do it.
You said yourself this is the wrong way, so why are you doing it?!

Patience, my dear.

hi guys,

i know, that you might be busy, but there's an open call #20926, which
i commented today. i hope you'll be responding anything soon, 'cause i
need a solution really fast. obviously, that's not the normal way to
raise the importance of any bug-report, but i hope to get help this
way, soon.

thx in advance for your support and sorry for the unusual way
submitting another bug (yes, i know how it should work normally... ;-)
)

br, md.
