Can you give me a quick cookbook, for producing a stack trace ?

I'm using CentOS 5.x systems; I usually install using YUM and RPMs. I 
see that the Shib repository contains -devel and -debuginfo versions of 
all the libraries. Which should I use ? Should I install one of those 
"families" by hand, using rpm ? Is there a way to use YUM to install an 
entire family ?

Once I have that version installed, I should run shibd under gdb ? eg

gdb /usr/sbin/shibd -p /var/run/shibboleth/shibd.pid -f -w 30

and then attach the output to an entry in jira ?

Its available on the Shib contributions page:

https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/Contributions

under "Other, Related, Contributions". I'm using "simple bash ECP 
client". On my CentOS 5 systems, I had to comment out lines 48-53. The 
script won't run to completion with those lines removed. But, inthis 
situation it encounters the shibd problem long before actually using the 
variables that are set in those lines.
