phpmyadmin warning about php-mcrypt

Comment 2 Robert Scheck 2009-10-03 12:19:56 UTC
From the PHP documentation: http://www.phpmyadmin.net/documentation/

"When using the "cookie" authentication method, the mcrypt extension is
strongly suggested for most users and is required for 64–bit machines. Not
using mcrypt will cause phpMyAdmin to load pages significantly slower."

BUT: On the other hand, we don't ship "cookie" authentication method per
default, we ship "HTTP" authentication enabled. As rpm.org doesn't support
soft dependencies, I don't see a good reason to bother users with another
dependency package not always needed or even required.
