Has this been announced anywhere, what is gonna be the PHP version for 24.04

[Michelle]

yeah I don’t know why they’re always rather secretive about it.

Probably more like the Linux geeks in charge of the LTS versions are not exactly PHP gurus and it’s probably not their biggest priority in their mind?

Looks like it will be PHP 8.3

Default Ubuntu / PHP Versions

is there really much difference anyway between 8.1 and 8.2 and 8.3? I mean it’s not like back in the day with PHP 5.6 moving to PHP 7+ and breaking the entire internet

Interestingly, PHP 8.1 was default on both 22.04 and 23.04

Which php version is default on Ubuntu 23.04?

only during 23.10 did it change to PHP 8.2

[Kenneth]

as far as I know, PHP 8.3 is much faster performance than others, so I hope that is what Ubuntu 24.04 will support by default.

Differences Between PHP Versions 7.4, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3

there are other new features in the 8.2 and 8.3 versions, but it probably matter to most websites.

[Kenneth]

any confirmation on this yet

It has been updated now. PHP 8.3 is confirmed boys!

“do-release-upgrade” vs. installing new Ubuntu LTS from scratch
