[ZendTo] error installing zendto-saml on ubuntu

[Elston, Ian]

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):
 conffile name 'opt/zendto/simplesamlphp/config/acl.php' is not an absolute pathname
Errors were encountered while processing:

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

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