Yes, it seems like Debian rolled a pretty badly broken update out, which leads to PHP being unavailable. I don't know the details, exactly, but reinstalling PHP does seem to be the right solution.

when I reinstalled it I used the webmin Software Packages search APT and just grabbed some php5 files, I know that it also replace and removed some files and although is running fine I’m not quite sure if it the same as before, but it does work even after a reboot so I’m not too worried
