package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source

Hello,

I have a libreNMS server that I made the mistake of trying to upgrade to 16.04. After upgrading I ran into some problems due to 16.04 using php7 while LibreNMS was calling for php5. I installed the PPA so I can install php5 and at least the website portion of LibreNMS now works, though the polling does not. I spoke with the guys at LibreNMS and they had me run a validate command and said I was missing items from the install and asked me to run the following command.

apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5 php5-cli php5-mysql php5-gd php5-snmp php-pear php5-curl snmp graphviz php5-mcrypt php5-json apache2 fping imagemagick whois mtr-tiny nmap python-mysqldb snmpd php-net-ipv4 php-net-ipv6 rrdtool git

When I do I get some missing packages that show no installation candidate. Here's the output:

Any ideas on how to get this to work? Or should I just give up and re-build the server?

php -v
PHP 5.6.24-1+deb.sury.org~xenial+1 (cli)
