Description of problem: please enable cracklib for php. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): N/A How reproducible: N/A Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: N/A Expected results: N/A Additional info: cracklib is included in the core fedora distro, it would be very nice if the stock included php support for cracklib was enabled, eg: --enable-crack=/usr/lib (or /usr/lib64 on x86_64) in the php build script.
Crack moved to PECL as of PHP 5.0, so it's a case of adding another package, not just enabling a config option. Again, I think Extras is appropriate. (sorry Dan ;)
should this be re-submitted as a request to add cracklib PECL module to fc4 then?
Not for Core, no, see http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/NewPackageProcess for the Extras submission process; I'd be happy to sponsor you.
