Using the afore-mentioned PPA in a 16.04 LXD container, I did:

`apt-get install zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-frontend-php`

I then followed

/usr/share/doc/zabbix-server-mysql/README.Debian

to populate the database.

I then followed

/usr/share/doc/zabbix-frontend-php/README.Debian

to configure the fronted. This document specifically mentions needing to
install php-mysql to use MySQL, so I did that as well.

I was able to proceed through all the screens at http://<ip of
container>/zabbix/setup.php until the last, which threw an error about
creating the configuration file. I downloaded the provided instead and
saved its contents to /etc/zabbix/zabbix.conf.php and the install was
able to conclude.

I was able to login and see the dashboard. I have little knowledge of
zabbix itself, but this much does work. I will investigate the LTS
upgrade path next.
