Cannot find php-curl package

I am struggling with the php-curl installation which cannot be found, I have seen plenty of topics related to it but it unfortunatelly did not help much. I want it for an curl function in a php program. I tried it via adding ppa:ondrej/php repository, but I think it simply does not help much.

I found there might have been some bugs

Answer

It was an issue with sources.list changed a lot time ago.

I updated it with other repositiories and it started working.

deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
deb https://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib

Next I have run sudo apt-get update.

Now I am able to see all the packages that were missing before.
