Bug#758600: shibboleth-sp2-utils: postinst fails on initial installation
Luca Bruno lu...@debian.org writes: As I didn't see much reaction, I went ahead and did some testing with a patched postinst. It seems to be ok in both cases (apache2 and nginx), I'm attaching the patch here. I've recently rotated my key, and my new one is not yet included in the bpo keyring. Can anybody please double-check the attached patch and upload it to bpo? Hi Luca, Thanks for taking care of this, and sorry about the delay. I see that this is waiting backports processing. I committed your upload to the packaging repository and then also added a patch that I think is a bit cleaner should a later backport be done, but I think your change will work fine.

I'd like to better understand the severity issue. Are you saying that there's no order I can install shibboleth and apache in wheezy that will work? I.E. even if I manually install the module first? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

Sorry then, I CC'd you explicitly as you did the backport, with additional changes over the plain jessie package, and are still listed as an Uploader.

Are you saying that there's no order I can install shibboleth and apache in wheezy that will work? I.E. even if I manually install the module first? No, I suspect there clearly are ways to express the dependency and some install-order to satisfy it. I've raised the severity because this package's postinst fails due to a non- declared dependency. Additionally, this package is not providing the apache module and the daemon should not require apache2 to be installed at all. So IMHO the missing/hypothetical dependency is also incorrect. While I see the benefit of autoloading the apache module, I think that this package SHOULD NOT gain a hard-dependency on apache2+mod_shib2, but opt instead for a conditional a2enmod in postinst. As I said, I'm exploring a nginx+shibboleth path, which I expect to be supported by the split-packaging setup currently in backport. Just my 2c, though, as I'm still new to the shibboleth world.

Hi,
Installing libapache2-mod-shib2 from wheezy backports. shibboleth-sp2-utils

module, but libapache2-mod-shib2 is not yet configured so
