            Bug ID: 227199
           Summary: net/phpldapadmin: Function mcrypt_module_open() is
                    deprecated.
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New

When using PHP >= 7.1 (which is necessary due to some serious issues with php
5.6), port net/phpldapadmin fails to work with the error:

Function mcrypt_module_open() is deprecated.

Searching the net for this error reveals that mcrypt has been marked deprecated
for PHP >= 7.1. A often mentioned and used workaround is to comment out the
routines in question and fall back to BLOWFISH (as I understand this). The
attached patch is taken from the web and applies to lib/functions.php,
commenting out the call for mcrypt_XXXX() at two places.

This makes net/phpldapadmin (actually phpldapadmin-1.2.3_7,1) working again
with lang/php71 as the default php.

The attached patch is considered a workaround.
