Description Xavier Bachelot 2026-05-09 21:43:30 UTC 
Hi,

Could you please branch and build libmcrypt for EPEL 10 ?
It is needed to build another package.

Regards,
Xavier

For memory, libmcrypt is a dead project, for 18 years (last release in 2008)

Nobody serious should rely on it, especially for cryptographic needs.
Comment 2 Xavier Bachelot 2026-05-11 09:53:05 UTC 
Agreed, but this is what nsca uses. I'll ping nsca upstream about this. Fwiw, the request to add nsca to EL10 came from an @nagios.com mail address.
