Not sure how much of this you did using packages?
I try never to use packages, instead compiling everything I need exactly to spec and configuring them the way I want.
If I were you I'd first download the libmcrypt package, install that, then try mcrypt. Not sure if you'll also need to re-install your PHP package in order to get it to recognize (and possibly be automagically compiled with) mcrypt support included.
If you were using a non-package approach, you'd download the libmcrypt source code tarball. Then you'd compile it, then (if it is a standalone package) compile mcrypt, and make sure you ./configured it to use libmcrypt, if it does not do so automatically. Then, you'd recompile your PHP instance, and make sure that it is set (usually via ./configure directives, if it does not attempt to do so automatically) to use mcrypt and "compile in" support for it into your PHP binary.
This should result in mcrypt support being available in your PHP instance.
