up2date php will grab the php package ITSELF, and all of its
dependancies. The client does not handle wildcards.

Closest to what you want is 

up2date $(up2date --showall | grep php)

which gets up2date to say what all the available packages are, greps for
all the php ones, and uses up2date to grab that list.


And note that the -i option John gave isn't _quite_ what you wanted -
leave it off.
