php5-gd install failure

Post by Toko33 »

I am running the 'easy' install for Ubuntu 16 server.

I ran into this problem in the php5-gd install step.

$ sudo apt-get install php5-gd
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package php5-gd is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'php5-gd' has no installation candidate

Please help!

If you follow the instructions, for Ubuntu 16.04 the package is: php-gd

Thank you.

That worked!

I was following this installation guide before:

I clicked on Documentation from the home page...apparently this is outdated.
