[Bug 1754294] Re: After last updated libcurl3 on libcurl4, some apps are removed.

[Neil Hoggarth]

I have the same problem as William Jojo (w-jojo) reported in #54.

The Shibboleth authentication package (libapache2-mod-shib2) in Bionic
Universe depends on libcurl3 (via libxmltooling7). I'm told in bug
#1776489 that this is because upstream Shibboleth hasn't yet released a
version that works with OpenSSL 1.1, so it genuinely needs
libcurl3/libssl1.0.0.

Even when Shibboleth 3 is released by upstream, presumably it will not
appear in Bionic, except perhaps as a backport?

So we need a solution for proper libcurl3 / libcurl4 co-existence in
Bionic, if the Shibboleth SSO stack is going to work in the current LTS
cycle.

Title:
  After last updated libcurl3 on libcurl4, some apps are removed.

Status in curl package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi!

  After last updated libcurl3 on libcurl4, system (Kubuntu 18.04 bionic) deleted such applications as:
  virtualbox-5.2
  opera-stable
  slack-desktop

  I really need these applications, I installed them with broken
  dependencies, but they are deleted after each update. Is it possible
  to make the dependence of the libcurl3 in libcurl4, and not remove it
  altogether from system?
