radicale: Explicitly set the auth type to accommodate radicale 3.5

Sunil Mohan Adapa requested to merge sunilmohan/freedombox:radicale-auth-type into main

Helps: #2501 (closed) Helps: Debian #1100995

  • With radicale's Debian packaging for version 3.5 (trixie) the auth/type configuration value is no longer set to remote_user by default[1]. FreedomBox's setup depends on this. So, set this value explicitly including for bookworm.

Tests:

  • Install on bookworm and testing VMs and run functional tests. Web UI works.

  • On bookworm VM, install radicale and perform dist-upgrade. Upgrade succeeds. Radicale is at version 3.5.0-1. The file /etc/radicale/config does not contains auth/type as 'remote_user'. This is because unattended-upgrades has unexpectedly upgraded radicale and overwrote the configuration file. This is being investigated separately.
