Hi all

I've set up a new ubuntu box, installed zendto with the installer script, and then gone to run apt install zendto-saml as we want to point this new one at ADFS or AAD.

So I follow https://zend.to/saml#packages

When I run apt install zendto-saml I get some error

<snip>
Preparing to unpack .../7-zendto-saml_1.0-1_all.deb ...
dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-2tFDGY/7-zendto-saml_1.0-1_all.deb (--unpack):

needrestart is being skipped since dpkg has failed
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I found this on the archives
http://jul.es/pipermail/zendto/2022-February/004588.html


Can anyone reproduce this error? Is there a workaround for a relative linux-y novice?

I've never used the installation script but note that 
zendto-saml_1.0-1_all.deb is not the latest version. The links on 
https://zend.to/downloads for the zendto-saml deb are for 1.1-3.

I've had a quick look at the 1.0-1 vs 1.1-3 debs and can see that 1.0-1 
definitely has the packaging error referenced in the mailing list post 
you found, whereas 1.1-3 does not.

I think the installer downloads installs zendto-repo.deb, which'll 
provide /etc/apt/sources.list.d/zendto.list . What are the contents of 
that file, and what version of Ubuntu are you using?

Ah, the deb repos hosted on http://zend.to all contain version 1.0-1 of 
zendto-saml, so need to be updated. In the mean time you can download 
and install the latest deb manually by e.g.

cd /tmp
wget -O - https://zend.to/files/zendto-saml_1.1-3.deb
sudo apt-get install /tmp/zendto-saml_1.1_3.deb

Whoops, sorry, that's the wrong syntax for wget. Depending upon whether 
you prefer curl or wget, either

curl -O https://zend.to/files/zendto-saml_1.1-3.deb

or

wget -O zendto-saml_1.1-3.deb https://zend.to/files/zendto-saml_1.1-3.deb

Ah yeah I just went off the instructions and I assume went to the repos with apt install zendto-saml


Now I did
wget  https://zend.to/files/zendto-saml_1.1-3.deb

then
apt install /home/nads/zendto-saml_1.1-3.deb

I do get something which looks a Bit Odd at the end
N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/nads/zendto-saml_1.1-3.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)

But it looks like its installed...

       root at zeus:/home/nads# apt list |grep zendto

       WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.

       zendto-repo/now 1.3-1 all [installed,local]
       zendto-saml/now 1.1-3 all [installed,local]
       zendto/lynx,trusty,xenial,bionic,now 6.13-3 all [installed]
