Dev issued me a ticket as he needed php7.0-curl on a server (using Shibd for user authentication) running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, so I obliged. Dependency libcurl4 was needed too, but had to stop there as the package shibboleth-sp2-common was to be removed. The shibboleth-sp2-common contains the shib daemon. Some googling got me to https://depts.washington.edu/bitblog/2018/06/libcurl3-libcurl4-shibboleth-php-curl-ubuntu-18-04/ and of course here.
My understanding is that Shibboleth is pretty widely used worldwide in university authentication solutions (we're a major Swedish Uni BTW) - how could this have slipped through? Is this a lost cause, do we wait for the next LTS release and hope for the best or what? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754294 Title: After last updated libcurl3 on libcurl4, some apps are removed.
