I have done much packaging back in my days in AIX. This looks to be a
simple case of one dependency to break them all - libxmltooling7 (see
#54 & #62, above). However looks can be deceiving.

For the complexity, see:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=828607#49

The details for libxmltooling supporting OpenSSL 1.1 appears to be fixed below.
https://issues.shibboleth.net/jira/browse/CPPXT-110

There is still the issue of release.

However, there are other pieces that need to fall in line.

I do not envy the ladies and gents that have to make this library soup
palatable to all, it is often exhausting, seemingly thankless and
involves much waiting on others.

Yes, it is broken, but not because of Canonical. In a way, I blame
myself a bit since a release upgrade test of 16.04 or clean install of a
shib-ed web server using the beta release during implementation of
libcurl4 (prior to Bionic's official release) would have revealed
breaking of Shib2 SP and this could have been posted to the release
notes.

Of course, like most, my hindsight is rather sharp.
