This is not true. libmcrypt comes with all ciphers, you don't need the mcrypt software itself.

What happen is that I followed the documentation at php.net/mcrypt and I had problem with algorithm. I checked the PHP Info (by using phpinfo() function) and it said that mcrypt is supported but no ciphers. The documenation should mentioned that mcrypt software is needed along with libmcrypt software, so I would have the cipher be supported. I'm new to libmcrypt and I got the impression that it have everything in it. I'm not familiar with mcrypt as well. Now that my understand had been enhanced, I figured the document will need to be updated or to include some information so in the future, it would benefit everyone better, including people who may be confused with libmcrypt and mcrypt. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19803&edit=1 -- PHP Documentation Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
