[Buildroot] openswan in latest stable release buildroot-2010.11.tar.gz

[prakash kamliya]

Hi List

I am new to this list. I was looking for openswan support in latest
buildroot. I downloaded buildroot-2010.11.tar.gz but could not find support
for openswan package. In older version (buildroot.2009.01) I found openswan
but not in the latest version. Do you have any idea why it is missing in
latest release ?

Thank you
Prakash

    package: remove openswan
    
    As noticed back when it was marked as broken 1 year ago.

    openswan: mark as BROKEN as it doesn't build with current kernel headers
    
    It WILL get removed after 2009.05 unless someone steps up to fix it.

It wasn't working and nobody seemed interested in fixing it, so I
removed it.
