How to install php-curl in Ubuntu 16.04

Upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04 and facing problem after installing PHP5.

Installed PHP-5 with following:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install php5.5   # for PHP 5.5

Trying to install php-curl but its not working.

sudo apt-get install php5-curl

Error: E: Unable to locate package php5-curl

In Ubuntu 16.04 default PHP version is 7.0, if you want to use different version then you need to install PHP package according to PHP version:

This worked for me.

sudo apt-get install php-curl

This works for me:

sudo apt-get install php5.6-curl

And then:

To Install cURL 7.49.0 on Ubuntu 16.04 and Derivatives

cd curl-7.49.0/

sudo apt-get install php5.6-curl

and restart the web browser.

You can check the modules by running php -m | grep curl

For Ubuntu 18.04 or PHP 7.2 users you can do:

apt-get install php7.2-curl

You can check your PHP version by running php -v to verify your PHP version and get the right curl version.
