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?
