[strongSwan] [strongswan-5.6.0] - Rekey issue

Hi Sriram,

Hm, that indicates it's a regular shutdown.  So do you have any scripts,
cron jobs or other processes running on your system that might restart
the daemon for some reason or other?

No and definitely not via SIGINT.  The only code that does send a SIGINT
is in starter, which uses it to terminate the daemon when it itself is
terminated (e.g. via ipsec stop/restart).

What Python dependency?  I'm not aware of any Python-related changes
between 5.6.0 and 5.6.1.  As it does not seem to be a crash, using a
newer release might not change anything, but it would still be a good
idea to use the latest version.
