Description
(x-posted from here: https://github.com/orgs/vercel/discussions/5498)
On a simple hobby site I run, I had a working vercel-php installation (see below for redacted version).
This was totally fine and last deployed about 50 days ago, worked very well. I tried to push a small text update, and now all builds fail with:
Error: Please install npm before continuing
I've tried adding "installCommand": "npm install" to the json, and also explicitly adding an override npm install in the project settings, but neither work, just the same error.
This is super annoying and unexpected. I don't see any recent change in the changelogs that could have caused this as well so perhaps its something related to vercel.com. However I thought it worth asking here as well. How can I fix this?

(the doc link provided on the last line isn't helpful at all - just says I need NPM, but not how to make sure it is included further than the attempts I've mentioned above)
I also experienced the same thing, does anyone know how to fix it?
Our test applications worked great until these updates.
Now we get a PHP fatal error:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function curl_init()
Was curl removed from the PHP function?
Hi folks. I am currently investigating it.
Hi again. Please upgrade to latest versions, it should work properly.

Hi @f3l1x thanks for looking into this. It is now working. How can I be aware of breaking changes like this in the future?
I am not 100% sure how to avoid it. I am trying my bests. :-)
