PHP 7 is not available for Ubuntu Trusty in the standard Ubuntu repositories (2016-01-02).

You could use the PPA ppa:ondrej/php

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.0

I recently upgraded from debian9 (stretch) to debian10 (buster). Which also includes upgrading to php7.4. For some reason php-curl cannot install.

I run apt install php7.4-curl and the error I get is:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 php7.4-curl : Depends: libcurl3 (>= 7.44.0) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I cannot see any held packages, anywhere. I have tried:

apt-mark showhold
dpkg --audit
dpkg --configure -a
apt-get install -f
apt-get clean
apt-get update
apt-get autoremove

I have also tried removing curl, purge, autoremove, and then reinstall. Same thing.

I try installing libcurl3

Package libcurl3 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
However the following packages replace it:
  libcurl4
