Hello,

In the options, both OPENSSL and MCRYPT are enabled by default.
PHP 7.1 and later are deprecating/removing MCRYPT (
http://php.net/manual/en/migration71.deprecated.php and
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/mcrypt-viking-funeral )


I've read this PR from 2010:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D144983 but now OpenSSL =
is
recommended by phpMyAdmin:
https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/pull/12273/files


This comment say OpenSSL is used in priority by phpseclib (used by phpmyadm=
in):
https://github.com/phpseclib/phpseclib/issues/1028#issuecomment-242739527

Having the OPENSSL option already enabled by default, I think MCRYPT is use=
less
even on PHP < 7.1. It should be safe to set the MCRYPT option to Off.

What do you think?
