I just completed a fresh install of Linux Mint 17.2 (64-bit). I
discovered that phpmyadmin was telling me that mcrypt was missing. I
installed the 5.4.6-0ubuntu5 version of php5-mcrypt but phpmyadmin still
complained that mycrypt support was missing. I discovered that the
php5-mcrypt package never created a symlink that would let apache2 be
aware of the package.
I fixed the problem by doing the following:
cd /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d
ln -s ../../mods-available/mcrypt.ini
after which I restarted the apache2 service.
