[Koha] SSO Shibboleth & oauth issues

[Justin Dowswell]

Hey David,

It's good to know there is a Koha community active so close to us!

Great.

So we're running 23.05 on Debian Bullseye installed using apt.

I'll have a look through Koha's logs. We're using OAuth as an alternative,
using the same IdP.
