Hi Ralf, thank you for your report. Do you really think, removing the manpage in one package might be clever? As both packages are using the same function under the hood, both packages need to have an appropriate manpage for this. Both packages manpages include almost the same informations in their manpage. I only see some FIXME-tags in the openswan manpages. I would like to either rename the manpages shipped with racoon or let openswan-maintainers do that. I'm looking forward to get some response from the openswan-guys.
