Freexian’s PHP LTS service is planning to end support for 2 platforms during 2025.
Support for Debian 8 will end on 30 June 2025, coinciding with the end of Extended LTS support.
Support for Ubuntu 16.04 will end on 31 December 2025.
These dates are documented on our platform end-of-life page.
Freexian’s PHP LTS service provides support for both current and older PHP releases, that are end of life upstream. The PHP packages are available as Debian packages for a range of Debian and Ubuntu releases. Currently PHP versions since 5.6 are supported on Debian since Debian 8 and Ubuntu since 16.04.
Also supported are a growing number of PECL extensions. Additional PECL extensions can be supported as needed.
For a complete matrix of supported PHP versions and Ubuntu and Debian releases, see Freexian’s PHP LTS offer.
This service is brought to you by Freexian in cooperation with Ondřej Surý.
