Please backport shibboleth-resolver 1.0.0-1 (universe) from vivid to trusty, utopic.

Reason for the backport:
========================

I'd like to backport the packages needed for
http://www.project-moonshot.org/ and the JISC Assent service
(http://jisc.ac.uk/assent ) to trusty. There are a number of academic
sites that use long-term releases and where being able to install the
Moonshot software without upgrading to a newer ubuntu would be
incredibly helpful. We've been maintaining our software in PPAs for a
number of years and it gets use from a number of users mostly in the
UK. Now that it's in vivid/universe it would be nice to backport.

This involves backporting libradsec, shibboleth-resolver, moonshot-ui
and moonshot-gss-eap.

Testing will involve testing moonshot-ui and using the
krb5-gss-samples package already in trusty to test moonshot-gss-eap.

Building moonshot-gss-eap will test the development packages for the libraries; testing it will test the runtime packages for the libraries.

Testing:
========
Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.

You can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s vivid -d trusty shibboleth-resolver
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s vivid -d utopic shibboleth-resolver

* trusty:
[x] Package builds without modification
[ ] libshibresolver1 installs cleanly and runs
[ ] libshibresolver-dbg installs cleanly and runs
[ ] libshibresolver-dev installs cleanly and runs
* utopic:
[x] Package builds without modification
[ ] libshibresolver1 installs cleanly and runs
[ ] libshibresolver-dbg installs cleanly and runs
[ ] libshibresolver-dev installs cleanly and runs

No reverse dependencies
