I have been trying to install php-mcrypt for a while now. Everytime I get the "No package php-mcrypt available." returned to me. Here's what I've tried:
root@ip-********** [~]# yum install php-mcrypt --enablerepo=centosplus (<- both with and without this)

Error: Nothing to do
I have made sure to install the EPEL repository. At this point I'm just stumped. I've followed EVERY tutorial I've found online and get the same error.
Notes: GoDaddy VPS, CentOS 6.4 64-bit, mcrypt installed without a hitch, but no php-mcrypt.
I was able to figure this out; it was a lot simpler then I thought. Under the WHM manager go to: Home >> Software >> EasyApache (Apache Update) >> There you have two options "Build Profile" or "Customize Based On Profile". I went Customize to keep my current config then followed the instructions on the page.
Eventually there was a place to add and remove php modules. There you will find ever module under the sun. Just select the one you want and rebuild the profile. It was really that simple.
