-------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
Since 10.9, OS X requires signed kernel drivers. In 10.9,
loading unsigned kernel drivers would raise a deprecation
warning; in 10.10, they are not loaded anymore. That means that
the macports version of `tuntaposx` does not work.
Apple provides "user tunnels" `utun` since OS X 10.6 that are
implemented as sockets instead of character devices, rendering
`tuntaposx` unnecessary.
`https://github.com/breiter/vpnc` is a fork of vpnc with `utun`
support and `utun` is supported in openconnect since 7.0 (and
we now have 7.5 in the tree).

Attached is a portfile that sets vpnc to the breiter branch and
removes the dependency on tuntaposx for vpnc and openconnect.
