I've just recently upgraded one of our Stretch servers to Buster. All went well except that for some reason PHP hasn't been upgraded, so I ended up with php7.0 running on Buster:
Code: Select all
$ dpkg -l | grep -i php
ii libapache2-mod-php7.0 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (Apache 2 module)
ii php-common 2:69 all Common files for PHP packages
ii php-pear 1:1.10.6+submodules+notgz-1.1 all PEAR Base System
ii php7.0 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 all server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage)
ii php7.0-cli 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 command-line interpreter for the PHP scripting language
ii php7.0-common 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 documentation, examples and common module for PHP
ii php7.0-gd 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 GD module for PHP
ii php7.0-gmp 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 GMP module for PHP
ii php7.0-json 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 JSON module for PHP
ii php7.0-ldap 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 LDAP module for PHP
ii php7.0-mbstring 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 MBSTRING module for PHP

ii php7.0-readline 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 readline module for PHP
ii php7.0-snmp 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 SNMP module for PHP
ii php7.0-xml 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 DOM, SimpleXML, WDDX, XML, and XSL module for PHP
ii php7.0-zip 7.0.33-0+deb9u3 amd64 Zip module for PHP
And the second question, what are the extra steps needed during the upgrade from Stretch to Buster to ensure that PHP is upgraded as well?
Thank you.
