First off, thank you for always reporting back when you issue is
resolved, it really does help the rest of us know if we are giving good
advice and whoever comes by later it gives them instructions on what to
do that they know should work.
(Sometimes it might even be yourself you help... inside joke for those
that know me)
> $ dpkg-query -W | grep php
I like to use "dpkg -l", it's shorter to type and gives you a bit more
info. dpkg-qwery is awesome if you want to get custom formatted lists
out of dpkg.
One of my favorites is:
dpkg-query -W -f '${Package} ${Status}\n'
which I use all the time to get lists of uninstalled packages that
haven't had their configs purged yet.

The debian/ubuntu equivelent is
apt-cache search php command line
just replace "php command line" with whatever word(s) that you want to
search for.
In the above case it will spit out a few lines, the one you will be
interest in is:
php5-cli - command-line interpreter for the php5 scripting language
Like I said, unless you are doing command line things, it isn't a single
machine replacement for a webserver + PHP.
