hi, i'm using debian stable with php7
You have two way to accomplish this:
1) [i don't do that] use dotdeb repositories (people says me that it works
with devuan too without trouble]
2) [i do that] pinning from ascii!!! :)
to do that i added ascii.list repositories and create a pinning file with
Package: php7*
Pin: release a=ascii
Pin-Priority: 500

it works like a charm!!!
if you need more info you can find me on irc [firegarden] or telegram

have fun!!! :)
