Follow notes at [[https://blog.remirepo.net/post/2022/12/08/PHP-version-8.2.0-is-released|Remi's RPM Repo Blog]] and [[https://www.linuxcapable.com/how-to-install-php-on-rocky-linux/|linuxcapable.com]]

  dnf config-manager --set-enabled crb
  dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm 
  NOTE: You may not want the following: dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-next-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
  dnf install dnf-utils http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-9.rpm
  dnf module reset php
  dnf module list php
  dnf module enable php:remi-8.2
  dnf install php php-cli php-mysqlnd php-opcache php-pdo php-pecl-mcrypt php-sodium

Run ''php -v'' to verify correct version is installed.

After the install, these PHP packages should be on the system:
  oniguruma5php-6.9.8-1.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-cli-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-common-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-fpm-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-mbstring-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-mysqlnd-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-opcache-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64 (this may not be needed)
  php-pdo-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-pecl-mcrypt-1.0.6-1.el9.remi.8.2.x86_64
  php-sodium-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64
  php-xml-8.2.7-2.el9.remi.x86_64

One of my VMs had these installed, but I removed them:
  php-gd
  php-ldap
  php-opcache
  php-pecl-zip

If you want to go back down a version, follow the steps above to reset/list/enable the version you want.  Then ''rpm -qa |grep php'' to find the packages that need to be downgraded to the previous version.  Remove all those RPMs.  Then do the ''dnf install php'' packages command to get the version you desire.
