PHP 7 packages cannot be found about drupal-pi HOT 2 CLOSED

PHP7 is not yet included in the stable release of Raspbian (Lite Jessie at least)

I temporarily used the workaround found here to solve this: https://getgrav.org/blog/raspberrypi-nginx-php7-dev . I only followed the PHP7 part. A bash-only summary:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
$ cd /etc/apt/
$ cat sources.list
$ sed -i '$ a\deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ stretch main contrib non-free rpi\n' sources.list
$ cat sources.list
$ fprint 'Package: *\nPin: release n=jessie\nPin-Priority: 600\n' > preferences
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install -t stretch php7.0 php7.0-curl php7.0-gd php7.0-fpm php7.0-cli php7.0-opcache php7.0-mbstring php7.0-xml php7.0-zip

This however still missed two more dependencies to be installed manually:
$ sudo apt-get install -t stretch libtool libtinfo-dev

After that the playbook runs just fine (takes a while though!), albeit with code from the "stretch" branch as opposed to stable release branch of Raspbian.

Sorry for not responding sooner! The reason you ran into that is because the upstream geerlingguy.php role is now defaulting to PHP 7.0 (and soon 7.1). Raspbian doesn't yet include the version in the default repos (as @TiemenSch mentioned), but I've gone ahead and changed a few other default settings so they'll at least work out of the box now.

I'm going to do a little testing on the Pi today to make sure the instructions are all up to date as well.
