2.5.3 is packaged in Git, but shibboleth-sp2 is implicated in the Boost
migration, which seems to be taking forever.  See:

    http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/shibboleth-sp2.html

specifically:

    This package is part of the ongoing testing transition known as
    boost1.54. Please avoid uploads unrelated to this transition, they
    would likely delay it and require supplementary work from the release
    managers. On the other hand, if your package has problems preventing
    it to migrate to testing, please fix them as soon as possible. You can
    probably find supplementary information in the debian-release archives
    or in the corresponding release.debian.org bug.

which is why I've not uploaded a new package.
