I have a laravel app that works perfectly with php 7.0. But on 7.2 many features are not working. So I would like to remove 7.2 from my server and install 7.0.
I could only find this command in the help
sudo apt-install php7.0-fpm
but when I run this I get the following error.
Reading package lists… Done Building dependency tree Reading state information… Done E: Unable to locate package php7.0-fpm E: Couldn’t find any package by glob ‘php7.0-fpm’ E: Couldn’t find any package by regex ‘php7.0-fpm’
What can I do to solve this problem.

You make syntax error: sudo apt-install php7.0-fpm must be sudo apt-get install php7.0-fpm
I tried following the steps to get the latest version working, but ran into issues with the first line
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
I get
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
software-properties-common```
I come from this [guide](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/automatically-deploy-laravel-applications-deployer-ubuntu), and the fourth step
The php-xml and php-mbstring packages installed on your server. Install these by running: sudo apt-get install php7.0-mbstring php7.0-xml.
is running into this error
Reading package lists… Done Building dependency tree Reading state information… Done E: Unable to locate package php7.0-mbstring E: Couldn’t find any package by glob ‘php7.0-mbstring’ E: Couldn’t find any package by regex ‘php7.0-mbstring’
Granted, I haven't installed Nginx, but am using Apache instead. Is that what's causing this headache? Because I can't seem to find any answers out there.
