PHP8.0 ERROR

does anyone know why i can’t upgrade to php 8.1? Has anyone else had problems? apparently they are the repositories but nowhere do I find the correct repositories to accept the php update.

I think it just hasn’t been updated for Parrot 5.1 yet.

Parrot:

┌─[anon@cracker]─[~]
└──╼ $php -v
PHP 7.4.30 (cli) (built: Jul  7 2022 15:51:43) ( NTS )

Kali:

┌──(root㉿shiva)-[/home/a-men/Applications]
└─# php -v    
PHP 8.1.5 (cli) (built: May 16 2022 17:15:25) (NTS)

Note that Kali is a Debian Rolling distro, where as Parrot 5.x is now a Debian LTS distro.

… this latest version of Parrot OS is a great choice for both hackers and security-minded internet users because, in contrast with previous versions, the last update follows a pattern of an LTS (long-term support) version.
