@shivammathur Thanks, I have seen your action.

One can just use apt to install the extension (or any other package for that matter). This issue it about having it pre-installed :slightly_smiling_face:.

Seems to be added now for Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 18.04 ?

yes, these should be available in the deployed runners for ubuntu16 and ubuntu18. @ADmad can you confirm and we'll close this issue? thanks.

That's not true.

[alepauly]

thanks @limonte, I'll investigate further.

[ADmad]

As demonstrated by @limonte intl extension is still not available by default.

Just to add a little bit of details.

Even though the php.sh installation script seems to have php-intl packages listed for installation, the package is not there.

I've tried enabling the extension manually with phpenmod intl, but got this output:

PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'intl.so' (tried: /usr/lib/php/20180731/intl.so (/usr/lib/php/20180731/intl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory), /usr/lib/php/20180731/intl.so.so (/usr/lib/php/20180731/intl.so.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)) in Unknown on line 0
PHP 7.3.12-1+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1 (cli) (built: Nov 28 2019 07:37:16) ( NTS )

I've also tried to check if intl.so is installed for any version of PHP. It isn't:

sudo find /usr/lib/php/ -type f -name '*.so'
