[CentOS] php-mcrypt from c5-testing is the wrong version
Hello all, I am using the c5-testing repo to fetch PHP 5.2.6 and related libraries, required for the LAMP apps that I want to use. php-mcrypt still seems to come from the extras repo and is version 5.1.6 and the php binary doesn't load this module. Any ideas on howto get php-mcrypt 5.2.6? Thanks. -- "The secret impresses no-one, the trick you use it for is everything" - Alfred Borden (The Prestiege)
