Hello list,

I need to install a package (php54) on a VM running debian jessie (Here is
why https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/web/multiplephp ). I have
managed to install rhscl-php54-epel-6-x86_64-1-2.noarch.rpm through alien
package, but don't know how to isntall
php54 php54-php-mysqlnd. Repo rhscl isn't in /etc/apt/sources.list but in
/etc/yum.repos.d/ and I wasn't able to find php54 php54-php-mysqlnd. Any
help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You are trying to install Red Hat packages on a Debian OS. What's more,
you are tring to install packages from Red Hat Software Collections,
which require manipulation of their environment to run properly. You'd
be much better off doing that on a CentOS machine.

Otherwise, prepare to enter a world of pain. :)

	If alien (which is a Debian software, isn't it) says you can, why not? You just need to 
be careful, trying a fake install first (dpkg --noinstall --no-act). I switched to Debian for that kind 
of safety, being tired to note all my changes and go back painfully afterwards. I remember 
(1998-99) when I installed gnome-0.nn ten times! But I can't live without BSD-games ( try "cal 
09 1752" (even MacOsX has it) and "pom 2712" it's unforgettable) nor without xanim to read 
old Quicktime CDs from an USB stick! I don't think Debian needs worship!

Alien is a last resort: if you have any other way to do this, do it.

RH SCL is also a repository to add things to Red Hat Enterprise Linux that are more up to date because RHEL is intended to be unconditionally 
stable and unchanging. Installing SCL packages on RHEL is not guaranteed to be tested or to work well: this is intended for developers who
absolutely, positively have to get something that is more up to date to build other software.

Apt and yum are orthogonal - so /etc/yum/repos.d created by yum utilities inside Debian is not guaranteed to work. Likewise, anything installed
through alien may conflict with corresponding Debian versions since alien doesn't necessarily inform apt and vice versa.

CentOS 6 is also now stable with no further development: so php 5.4 on CentOS 6 is not going forward because there will be no change in CentOS 6
as it goes into extended support.

PHP 5.6 is current in Debian Jessie. Having checked Virtualmin's install script - just use their installer for goodness sake: it sorts out
the dependencies you need. If you really, really must reverse engineer this sort of stuff, do it in a CentOS VM on your Debian machine.

Actually take the time and read Virtualmin's install.sh - it's a shell script: learn from it?

All the best,

AndyC

Debian jessie has php 5.6. If you don't know what you are doing, just leave
it

That doesn't explain why you want to install software from 2012 without
upstream support on Debian while the software is packaged for a
completely different distribution. Do you really know what you are
doing?

Sorry for being so blunt, but what you are doing is generally a very bad
idea. Describe what you want to achieve, maybe somebody can help.
"Running insecure, deprecated PHP for CentOS on Debian" is probably not
what you actually want to do.
