I do have to wonder why you don't just pull the rpm from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/security:/shibboleth/

Assuming your Linux is over the RHEL variety the only issue you will
have are around SELinux.

I have written a basic policy for this and if your willing to test hit
me up off list so we can work through any bugs.

Cheers,

Sam
