PHP5 unmet dependencies when upgrading

  • 772

Trying to upgrade PHP from 5.3 to 5.6 using the following:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php5-5.6
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php5-common

When I try this, I run into this error and not sure how to resolve:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libapache2-mod-php5 : Depends: apache2-api-20120211
                       Depends: apache2 (>= 2.4)
                       Depends: php5-json
 php5-cli : Depends: php5-common (= 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.21) but 5.6.18+dfsg-1+deb.sury.org~precise+1 is to be installed
 php5-common : Breaks: php5-xdebug (< 2.2.2) but 2.1.0-1 is to be installed

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

If I try to precede the upgrade by doing sudo apt-get install python-software-properties then I get this error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libapache2-mod-php5 : Depends: apache2-api-20120211
                       Depends: apache2 (>= 2.4)

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

If I try sudo apt-get apache2, I get this error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

I tried doing sudo apt-get -f install as suggested, but does not resolve problem. Instead, I get this:

Also tried doing just sudo apt-get install php5 but get essentially the same error.

What is the correct way to resolve these dependencies issues?

php

  2. You must install too the Apache server in 2.4 version minimum. I don't think the PPA will provide you this package. So it break the dependancy. Then you will be able to install the php-common package.
