I've seen a PHP BC-MATH installation for YUM
but not apt-get
. Does one know of a working apt-get
solution?
Unfortunately, from this SO thread, apt-get install php5-bcmath
gives the error Unable to locate package php5-bcmath
.

php5-fpm
in Precise and later (as well as the Apache equivalent libapache2-mod-php5
package for Apache built-in PHP5 modules) is listed as having bcmath
built in to it as an included module. This information is written in the package description file (debian/control
) in the package itself when extracted and being viewed as the raw source package, containing source code and a debian/
directory which contains directives to debian build systems to build packages.
Given that the php5-fpm
system as well as the libapache2-mod-php5
plugin for Apache has it included by default, I don't think you have to install any additional packages or plugins to get bcmath
.
In case my word isn't enough and you want to see the evidence of this, then...
This is a list of links to the debian/rules
file which defines which extensions are enabled in PHP at the time of building for each currently supported release at the time of this post (there may be updates after this post that are not reflected here). You can click each of these to see the ./configure
arguments that are passed to php5
during the building process for those packages. Note that this will show you specifically where bcmath
is enabled for all php5
binaries in those releases:
