That is a problem - PHP 7.0.

I started by installing Ubuntu 18.04lts and then found out that Magento 2 is not compatible with PHP 7.2.  

With Magento 2 not being compatible with PHP 7.2...  I tried installing PHP 7.1 on Ubuntu 18.04lts, however there is issues with unmet dependencies.

I'm a software developer not a system admin.  I can do some stuff... I like to install what comes with the distro.  I like Ubuntu... however this is not as clean as I'd like it to be.

Here is the message I get when trying to install PHP 7.1 on Ubuntu 18.04lts

---

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
php7.1-mcrypt : Depends: libmcrypt4 but it is not installable
php7.1-zip : Depends: libzip4 (>= 1.0) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

---

This is "test" or learning server.... for me exclusively.  I'd like to be able to use it for at least a year before re configuring.... 

I need to load Magento 2, WordPress, and possible Drupal 8 onto this server

Any thoughts are much appreciated.

Thanks!

Keith

I hate to point it out, but PHP 7.0 that is in Ubuntu 16.04 reaches end of life in 2 months:

Thank you very much.  After installing Ubuntu 18.04lts I found Magento 2 is not compatible with PHP 7.2.

I installed Ubuntu 16.04lts which is compatible.  

Thank you for your help!!

Hi,

Setting up a test server for Magento 2.  Requires bcmath.  I can find no such package.

I am on Ubuntu 18.04lts that has PHP 7.2.10-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 installed.

Tried using apt-cache pkgnames Bcmath and apt-cache pkgnames php7.2-bcmath , both return to the prompt w/o any feedback.  

Been searching the web to no avail.....

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks!!

Keith
