 Hello folks,

   starting from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Update 6 the scap-security-
 guide package has been included into Red Hat Enterprise Linux directly:
 [[BR]]
   [[BR]]
   [1] https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-
 US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/6.6_Release_Notes/bh-chap-security.html

 therefore the former EPEL-6 scap-security-guide branch should be marked as
 obsoleted.

 According to the guide: [[BR]]
   [2] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life
 [[BR]]
   [3]
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/GuidelinesAndPolicies#Policy_for_Conflicting_Packages
 [[BR]]

 I have already:
 * marked the package as 'dead.package' in cGit EPEL-6 branch: [[BR]]
   [[BR]]
   [4] http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/scap-security-
 guide.git/commit/?h=el6 [[BR]]
 and updated the pgkDB to list EPEL-6 branch for scap-security-guide as
 retired:[[BR]]
   [5] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/scap-security-guide/

 The last item that remains to be done yet according to [3] is to file the
 Fedora rel-eng ticket against koji component to block the EPEL-6 branch
 from being pushed to the mirrors.

 So could you please mark the EPEL-6 branch for scap-security-guide package
 in your notes as blocked from future koji mirror pushes?

 Thank you && Regards, Jan. [[BR]]
