How do I install pthreads on Debian?

Question

Suprisingly, I can't find this anywhere. I'm trying to use the php Thread class. To do this I have to install pthreads.

How do I install pthreads on Debian 8?

Pthreads is part of the libc6 package:

dpkg -L libc6 | grep pthread
/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpthread-2.19.so
/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpthread.so.0

You might need need libc6-dev if you are compiling stuff:

dpkg -L libc6-dev | grep pthread
/usr/include/arm-linux-gnueabihf/bits/pthreadtypes.h
/usr/include/pthread.h
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpthread_nonshared.a
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpthread.so
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpthread.a
