Rquired php extesnsions not present in Debian stable

[ckosloff]

I am attempting to install zen cart on my remote compute instance on Linode but...
requested extensions: GD, curl, XML are not present in Debian 11, latest stable version.
Maybe those extensions are present in php8.2, which will ship with Debian 12.
How solve this problem in the meantime?

....

completely untrue.

and i do NOT recommend adding the SURY Repository (although i do recommend him and supporting his work.)

Thanks for reply, i was getting desperate.
I see no other solution than to load php 8.2 from sury repo.
I am also loathe to load additional repos than the stable version, but if I want to install ZC158 I wil have to.
Any other suggestion?

Crap, I missed that you were installing packages for bullseye, not extensions.
Thank you , you saved my life, no need to install additional repos.

FYI, I am old and have been away from ZC for years, ladywig.com no longer exists, but now: I'M BACK!
So be merciful with an old guy who is rusty.
