The crontab entry of vdt-update-certs has a problem. It does not
set up the PERL5LIB correctly. If the crontab is executed
as configured via the VDT, you get the following error:

[root@osg-ress-4 ~]# /usr/local/vdt-1.8.0/vdt/sbin/vdt-update-certs
--vdt-install /usr/local/vdt-1.8.0

------------

I have verified that this error exists still in vdt-1.8.0a that was
released today.

If /usr/local/vdt-1.8.0/setup.sh is sourced first, it works fine.

	Download (untitled) / with headers text/plain 277b I think we should fix this in VDT 1.8.0, so we can get some testing of it. I know it's annoying to have to release another update, but testing this is important. I don't know if we should source setup.sh, set PERL5LIB (and other stuff?) explicitly, or some other solution.

Commit comment:
Added a wrapper for the vdt-update-certs script. This wrapper
sources setup.sh, so that the PERL5LIB is set correctly when
called out of cron - otherwise VDTConfigure cannot be found.
