PHP 7 with phpmyadmin gives lots of Deprecation Notices

Question

I have Ubuntu 16.04 LTS running with PHP7 and phpmyadmin installed. However, I get a lot of deprecation notices like:

Depre         


        

Answer 1

Updating the server worked for me with sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and then restarting apache.

I think that this issue is caused by not updating phpmyadmin frequently enough.
