Thank you for your work

It's correct, i was able to replicate thats error. but you can use PHP 7.4 only for that case:

1. Add package to composer (dev)
2. Use docker with PHP 7.4 -> docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/var/www codepso/php:7.4-fpm-mysql composer install
3. codepso/php:7.4 its a php 7.4 image, you can use another

why do I need to install php 7.4 if the question is support and the ability to install the package using php 8 ?

@barryvdh what do you think about ?

The issue is not laravel-debugbar, but it's dependency (https://github.com/maximebf/php-debugbar). If you take a look at the composer.json, you'll see this package is already ready for PHP 8.

And concerning maximebf/debugbar, it seems like they are already working on PHP 8 compatibility, as the last commits concern tests with PHP 8

Running the tests for PHP8 as we speak, will tag when passing; https://github.com/maximebf/php-debugbar/pull/461

It's tagged now as 1.16.4, so should be available in a few minutes or so.
