I used to use this on a daily basis, but I now have zero use for it (and zero ability to test it). Anyone actually use this? It's pretty low maintenance -- I was pulling snapshots from svn/git with some bash voodoo I left in the PKGBUILD to generate snapshots.

Two repos you say? svn because vpnc seems to refuse to tag a new release, and the repo is varying states of quiet to silent. git because an Intel employee actively maintains the shell scripts used on post-connect (/etc/vpnc/vpnc-script).

I'll give this a week before dropping it to the AUR.

FTR, vpnc is used by a couple of packages: archboot networkmanager-vpnc openconnect

so it will need to stay in the repos unless we also remove or update the dependencies of these packages.

Uggh... I guess that means Ionut wants to take vpnc, since he maintains openconnect ;). Alternatively, there's no real issue with leaving vpnc in extra -- it just means it isn't going to be touched unless someone asks me to. d
