Packaging update

[Takeshi NISHIMURA]

For those who try testing the package for SP 2.5,

Don't forget to update both shibboleth and libxml-security-c16, that is:
$ sudo yum update shibboleth libxml-security-c16

It seems libxml-security-c16-1.6.1-3.1 (or any version in security_shibboleth repository) does not work with new shibboleth package. Version 1.6.1-4.1 (or any version in home_Scott_Cantor repository) does work.

Error messages:
$ sudo /sbin/service shibd start
Starting shibd: bash: line 1: 12826 Segmentation fault      /usr/sbin/shibd -p /var/run/shibboleth/shibd.pid -f -w 30
                                                           [FAILED]

My environment: CentOS 5.7 / i386

Have fun,
Takeshi
