How to upgrade the php version from 5.3.x to 5.3.y?

Question

I just downloaded the development release of Drupal8 for testing purpose. When I try to install it shows the following error:

Your PHP installation is too old. Drupal requires at least PHP 5.3.10.

My current php version is 5.3.8. How do I make update only to php? Or do I need to update mysql also?

You could use a ppa to stay up-to-date with php.

 sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php5
 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get upgrade
