Not only is that extremely vague, but it's possibly more of an
issue with Ubuntu's repo than PHP itself. Nonetheless, try this and
reply to the list with the output of each:
php -v
php -r 'echo phpversion().PHP_EOL;'
php -nv
Also, while it does work with PHP, note that, with a few
exceptions such as `find`, *NIX CLI short options (single dash)
generally expect a single character, while long options
(double-dashes) take longer strings.
