Looks like packages is ready for stable, can we promote and close?  Thanks!

Comment 6 David A. Cafaro 2015-04-29 12:54:35 UTC

Is this package ready for stable?

Comment 7 David A. Cafaro 2015-08-05 14:07:46 UTC

Can this be moved out of QA?

Comment 8 Pavel Šimerda (pavlix) 2015-08-17 15:08:27 UTC

Same as in the Fedora bug report. Bugzilla is not the best tool for communication about maturity of Fedora updates. There is an automatic system that marks packages stable based on user feedback linked right from the bugzilla, see below.

EPEL QA is handled by EPEL users in the very same way as Fedora QA. I have just submitted the update for stable by hand due to lack of user interest in testing the package.

Comment 9 Fedora Update System 2015-08-17 19:06:57 UTC

strongswan-5.3.2-1.el7 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 7 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
