Hi Milan, Once an Ubuntu series is finalised and released, it is essentially frozen for stability reasons.
There are certain circumstances when packages are updated, which is set out in the Stable Release Updates process: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates This normally involves taking a specific patch from a newer release and placing it ontop of the older release to fix a specific issue. We don't normally do updates to upstream point releases or new versions, as it may introduce regressions. In the case of php, it isn't just one package. There are 1-2 thousand packages that depend on php in the Ubuntu archive. Moving major php releases is a difficult task, as all of those packages need to be fixed and updated to migrate to the new php version. Anyway, 23.10 has php 8.2 in its repositories. 24.04 will have 8.3 landing shortly. php | 2:8.1+92ubuntu1 | jammy | all php | 2:8.2+93ubuntu1 | mantic | all php | 2:8.2+93ubuntu1 | noble | all php | 2:8.3+93ubuntu2 | noble-proposed | all If you don't want to stray from the official Ubuntu archives, maybe you want to use 23.10 which is supported until July, or wait until 24.04 comes out in April, which is supported for 10 years.
