Unable to install shibboleth.x86_64 on AWS EC2 instance

[Luca 'remix_tj' Lorenzetto]

Hello,

i just did a setup on EC2 on RHEL9 using rockylinux9 packages. I
suppose that you're using and rpm based os, so maybe Amazon Linux 2.

Why you're not using the prebuilt packages? This will simplify a lot.
