Description of problem: Hi seems like vpnc has not yet been build for epel7. Could you please do so? I've tried to do a scratch-build from f20 branch against epel7 and so far it works well for me. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=6459956 Lubos
Additional.. I was able to load the F19 vpnc, vpnc-scripts, and NetworkManager-vpnc and they work on RHEL 7.0. They need to either be added to RHEL Supplementary or EPEL...

I am sorry about the delay, i should be able to get this done this week or next !
Thanks Huzaifa!
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=250462#c3 is the request to create epel-7 branch in fedora git, once that is done i can go ahead and commit/build
If that is the best way to build and maintain the required VPNC and NetworkManager RPMS in EPEL for the long term. I don't know if there are plans to re-add this to RHEL. I assume not. If that is the case then building them into EPEL for epel-7 is the next best option.
I think it makes sense to add it to epel-7. Removing it later if RHEL includes it could be easy :)
I did a scratch build of the version used in fedora-21 currently and the build worked. If anyone has some time, a quick test run would help me immensely: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7260127
Tested and works OK, thank you. I'll happily co-maintain if you want to.
Hi Christian, There was a build of vpnc for EPEL7: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=552425 It was tested right away at the time: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1058393#c9 But it was never published on Bodhi: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/?packages=vpnc Could you please create an errata for this build? Maybe updating to svn550 makes sense too. As a side note, I cannot test anymore.
I was wondering if it makes sense to retire vpnc? It is dead upstream and there is no maintenance which is bad for such a VPN software.
Retiring it makes sense too.
