I am writing to report a potential issue with the Aegis functions in
PHP.

I am currently running the latest PHP version (8.4.11) on a Debian
system, but I have noticed that the following functions are unavailable:

- sodium_crypto_aead_aegis128l_encrypt
- sodium_crypto_aead_aegis128l_decrypt

Conversely, these functions are working as expected in the Windows build
of PHP.

System Information:
ii  php-cli                                                     2:8.4+96

module for PHP

Steps to Reproduce:
Execute the following commands:
   php -r
'var_dump(function_exists("sodium_crypto_aead_aegis128l_encrypt"));'
   php -r
'var_dump(function_exists("sodium_crypto_aead_aegis128l_decrypt"));'

Expected Behavior:
I expected both functions to return true, indicating their availability.

Actual Behavior:
Both commands return false.
I have ensured that the sodium extension is enabled, and I am using
libsodium version 1.0.18, which is required to support these functions.

Also,
php -r 'print_r(get_extension_funcs("sodium"));'
