My server environment is as follows :
Ubuntu 18.04
Mysql : 5.6 Installed
Php : 5.6 Installed
Im trying to install phpmyadmin by executing sudo apt install phpmyadmin which give me following prompt
The following additional packages will be installed:
dbconfig-mysql libjs-sphinxdoc libzip4 php-mysql php-pear php-php-gettext php-phpseclib php-tcpdf php-zip php8.0-common php8.0-mysql php8.0-zip
although I have all the libs installed for php 5.6 it gives me above prompt. My application supports php 5.6 only so how can I skip php 8 installation at this stage ?
