Yeah, I think I see the point. I remember that this file has been quite
stable in recent years however. At the moment I have some service specific
configuration in that file and it breaks everytime.

But yeah, I have a look if I can configure things somewhere else or I just
take Shib out of sysadmins maintenance tasks and start updating it myself.
Thanks anyway from the repo, its more convenient than downloading stuff
by hand.
