Function "json_decode" does not work after PHP5 reinstall
I re-installed PHP5 on my server just to stay updated. However, after that reinstall, everywhere on my sites where I use function:
json_decode(…
Executions breaks. (It did not with the previous PHP install.)
The error i am getting is:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function json_decode() in /home/username/public/example.com/public/somefile.php on line 155
--- I have attempted the following, with following results ---
I tried sudo apt-get install php5-json
However, it did not work (please see log below)
root@lion:/# sudo apt-get install php5-json

Package php5-json is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'php5-json' has no installation candidate
Has anyone ever experienced this problem before?
Can anyone help with what could be wrong? How to bring json_decode back?
