When i try insstall this package i get:

Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package php7.2-bcmath E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'php7.2-bcmath'

In source.list i have:

deb https://packages.sury.org/php/ jessie main

Why is this package invisible on the system and cannot be installed?

  • You are using the public repository of a private person to install your software. Either use official sources or contact the owner of the repository at sury.org for missing packages. – Daniel W. Jun 16 '21 at 09:42
  • Also make sure you are on correct versions, `php7.1-bcmath` doesn't match `php7.2-bcmath`. – Daniel W. Jun 16 '21 at 09:44
  • Error in description, version php7.2 - I corrected the description – Łukasz Hoszowski Jun 16 '21 at 10:28
  • Here is information: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67895214/cannot-install-php7-2-bcmath-on-debian/67979233#67979233 Use deb.sury.org Just add https://packages.sury.org/php/ to Your apt/sources.list, and voila. There is php7.2-bcmath and a lot of other php stuff - but this dont work :/ – Łukasz Hoszowski Jun 16 '21 at 10:28
  • There is `php7.2-bcmath` but there isn't `php7.2-bcmath` - I don't understand that. It is possible the vendor simply forgot to add that package to his repository, you need to contact that person. You did `apt-get update` right? – Daniel W. Jun 16 '21 at 11:55
  • Of course I used apt-get update :) – Łukasz Hoszowski Jun 18 '21 at 15:57
  • Although you didn't mention, I'd suggest `docker pull php:7.2-stretch`. You could also replicate what they do to install from their [Dockerfile](https://hub.docker.com/layers/php/library/php/7.2-zts-stretch/images/sha256-4c9c2ccb509be5e9afbc9347894e84d4e241c87752fcf174996f8ced38e538ed?context=explore). – Daniel W.

  • docker pull php: 7.2-stretch - should I run it in the console? I get: docker: command not found... – Łukasz Hoszowski Jul 01 '21 at 07:39
  • You'd need to install Docker to use containers. – Daniel W. Jul 01 '21 at 11:57

jessie codename isn't supported in Sury repository. To list the permitted debian codenames:

curl -sSL https://packages.sury.org/php/dists/ | awk -F '"|/"' 'FNR >4 {print $2}'

sample output:

bullseye
buster
stretch

Debian Jessie LTS reached End-Of-Life

the repositories have been removed with the last PHP update, so they are already gone.

To install php7.2 you need to use the Freexian repository. See PHP LTS by Freexian and How to access the APT repositories

  • Freexian is paid. Is there really no way to install this stupid addon manually ??? It is very strange that installing a simple plugin can be such a problem... – Łukasz Hoszowski Jun 17 '21 at 23:47
