SP / CentOS 8

[Alex Perez]

Hi Scott,

thanks for that. I'm missing the "shibboleth-resolver" and 
"libshibresolver" packages from the list. Are they going to be there at 
some point? We still use them for Moonshot, so it'd be nice to have them 
built if possible.

Best,
Alex

We'll probably have a relatively "self contained" system for doing the builds that others could steal though.
