Package php7 0 curl has no installation candidate

I have a problem for installing php7.0-curl on my homestead.

On my Laravel homestead:

sudo apt-get install php7.0-curl

It returns :

E: Could not find package php7.0-curl

E: Could not find package matching the regex « php7.0-curl »

Note: if I run in my terminal just : curl --help it's working.

For info, my computer runs on:

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:Ubuntu 15.04
Release: 15.04
Codename: vivid

Try this :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php-7.0
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-cache search php7.0-curl 

If you find it in php7.0-curl then install it using

sudo apt-get install php7.0-curl

Hope it helps.

The package php7.0-curl is only available on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) and on Ubuntu 16.10 (yakkety, to be released).

Your current version of Ubuntu, 15.04 (vivid) has reached end of life the February 4, 2016

You can try to import the package from one of these distributions and resolve dependencies by hand but it would be much safer to install Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

By the way, if you want to install php7.0-curl inside Laravel Homestead, you need to insure that the ubuntu version running inside Laravel Homestead is greater or equal to 16.04.

You can either do:

sudo apt-get install php php-common

or

sudo apt-get -f install

to solve this dependency issue, however, I would opt for the first one, the second is like solving fine details with a sledgehammer.

If this all really doesn't solve your problem, then you might as well check if you have the package repositories enabled

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

before retrying.

Following procedure retrieved from chat discussion:

wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/php7.0/php7.0-common_7.0.4-7ubuntu2.1_i386.deb
wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/php7.0/php7.0-curl_7.0.4-7ubuntu2.1_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i php7.0-common_7.0.4-7ubuntu2.1_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i php7.0-curl_7.0.4-7ubuntu2.1_i386.deb

Solved it. Packages for the 'amd64' architecture can be found at packages.ubuntu.com.
