So I think I see a potential issue, based upon #c6. In a trusty lxd, I did:
# apt install php5 The result of the 'manually installed packages' is: # apt-mark showmanual | grep php php5 Note that specifically, php5-common is not marked as manually installed. So I'm guessing, as Amael mentioned in #c6, that php5-mysql was installed after the fact, manually (as opposed to as a dependency resolution), and thus was kept over the release upgrade (I believe this is normal/expected, so things don't unexpectedly break). I wonder if Robie, during your test, you just installed php5 (as opposed to some php5- package like php5-mysql) before release upgrading? I'm not sure what the right solution is here, as Amael noted, I would suggest, after completing the upgrade, to ensure all php5* packages are removed (apt remove php5*, I think, would do it -- without purging the configuration so you can migrate it). I think the primary issue here, as well, is that php7.0-mysql doesn't really replace php5-mysql (as the extension was deprecated in php5 and removed in php7: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/mysql_deprecation), so perhaps for that specific package there is no transition path (and that is part of the migration to PHP7.0 generally). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1579480 Title: PHP7-ubuntu sessionclean searches for "php5" named binary To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php-defaults/+bug/1579480/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
