Ubuntu上官方的源，比如 Ubuntu 14.04 默认源中的是 PHP5.6.x、Ubuntu16.04 默认源中的是 PHP7.0.x，那么如果想在 Ubuntu 16.04 上安装 PHP7.1，PHP7.2，应该怎么办呢？
答案是通过第三方的源来安装，ppa:ondrej/php 是一个比较知名的PHP源（目前维护php5.6,php7.0,php7.1,php7.2）。下面就用这个源来安装自己想要的PHP版本。
1.通过源安装PHP
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install php7.1 # for PHP 7.1 sudo apt-get install php7.0 # for PHP 7.0 sudo apt-get install php5.6 # for PHP 5.6
2.安装相关版本的PHP模块
sudo apt-cache search php7* ... php-all-dev - package depending on all supported PHP development packages php7.0 - server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage) php7.0-cgi - server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (CGI binary) php7.0-cli - command-line interpreter for the PHP scripting language php7.0-common - documentation, examples and common module for PHP php7.0-curl - CURL module for PHP php7.0-dev - Files for PHP7.0 module development php7.0-gd - GD module for PHP php7.0-gmp - GMP module for PHP ... ... ... php7.1-xml - DOM, SimpleXML, WDDX, XML, and XSL module for PHP php7.1-xmlrpc - XMLRPC-EPI module for PHP php7.1-zip - Zip module for PHP php7.1-opcache - Zend OpCache module for PHP php7.1 - server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage) php7.1-xsl - XSL module for PHP (dummy) ... ... php7.2-bcmath - Bcmath module for PHP php7.2-bz2 - bzip2 module for PHP php7.2-cgi - server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (CGI binary) php7.2-cli - command-line interpreter for the PHP scripting language php7.2-common - documentation, examples and common module for PHP php7.2-curl - CURL module for PHP php7.2-dba - DBA module for PHP
3.选择需要的模块，安装之
sudo apt-get install php7.2-curl php7.2-dev php7.2-gd php7.2-imap php7.2-intl php7.2-mbstring php7.2-mysql php7.2-xml php7.2-zip
4.切换PHP版本
sudo update-alternatives --config php
5.设置Apache与正确的PHP版本一起运行
sudo a2dismod php7.1 # unload the current version sudo a2enmod php5.6 # load the version you need sudo service apache2 restart # restart webserver to apply
到此结束，再也不用担心安装PHP，切换PHP版本这些事情啦。
