'Missing php8.1-curl package

I'm trying to install the php8.1-curl package on my system - Ubuntu 21.04. I've added the Ondřej Surý's repository (add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php), performed apt update and I'm able to install php8.1 and many other extensions (e.g. php8.1-zip) via apt install php8.1..., but not php8.1-curl for some reason.

> sudo apt install php8.1-curl
...
E: Unable to locate package php8.1-curl
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'php8.1-curl'

How should I go about troubleshooting this issue? Where can I look for the package and why it's missing on my system?



Solution 1:[1]

Try to remove and re-add ondrej/php repository

Update the system

apt-get update -y

Check the package

apt-cache search php8.1-curl

You should see output like this

php8.1-curl - CURL module for PHP
