Configure checks for the wrong haeder file.

Hmmm - i must say that indeed packer.h is needed because
the extension uses somee kind of low level interface to
the library. 

If you get the original library you will have that file.

Get it from: ftp://coast.cs.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/libs/cracklib/

Maybe it is an option to rewrite the extension to support
the interface avalable from the rpms or to support both.

thank you i downloaded the original libraries and copied the packer.h file in the /usr/include directory and that solved the problem.

I've created Red Hat RPMS for cracklib that PHP can build against.  Red Hat's Cracklib RPM is broken and has been since at least 7.1.

See http://www.dragonstrider.com/cracklib for fixed packages.  There is an open Bugzilla entry for this: 68339.
