Shipped versions of PHP and Zabbix (frontend) are incompatible

,

Problem

Fedora 35 and 36 ship version 8.0 of PHP and version 5.0 of Zabbix, but as stated in Zabbix 5.0 Documenation: Requirements this combination is not supported. The PHP software for the Zabbix frontend needs to have version 7.2 or later, but not 8.

Cause

PHP was updated in the Fedora Linux repositories to the latest version, and there isn’t a Zabbix version that is ready for that.
