SP on openSUSE 13.x and SLES 12

[Bernd Oberknapp]

Hi,

I've looked into the problems with building the shibboleth package for
newer SUSE versions with the openSUSE build service:

openSUSE 13.1: The build system only seems to include some of the
libtool files by default. The problem can be fixed by adding

  %if 0%{?suse_version} > 1300
  BuildRequires:  libtool
  %endif

to shibboleth.spec. Probably libtool could safely be added to all SUSE
versions but I haven't tried that.

openSUSE 13.2: Installing files in /var/run from RPMs is forbidden on
openSUSE 13.2. I would suggest to remove

  %attr(0755,%{runuser},%{runuser}) %dir %{_localstatedir}/run/shibboleth

from shibboleth.spec and let the shibd init script create the directory.

SLES 12: Xerces-C isn't included in SLES 12 and the SLE 12 SDK therefore
I had to add the xerces-c-3.1.1 package.

I've successfully built the packages with the build service for openSUSE
12.3, 13.1, 13.2 and Tumbleweed and SLES 11 SP3 and 12 with these
changes https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:boaai and run some
basic tests on openSUSE 13.1 and SLES 12.

Best regards,
Bernd
