I suggest you file a Debian Request for Package (RFP) for network-manager-libreswan : https://wiki.debian.org/RFP
Once the package is in Debian Sid, it will automatically make its way to Ubuntu. Or if you are able to provide a package, an Intent to Package (ITP) : https://wiki.debian.org/ITP libreswan was added to Debian Sid earlier in the year and it made its way to Ubuntu 17.04. Upstream in the GNOME Projects network-manager-libreswan GIT repository in the NEWS file, you'll notice network-manager-libreswan was renamed from network-manager-openswan at version 1.2 https://git.gnome.org/browse/network-manager-libreswan/tree/ Debian/Ubuntu used to include network-manager-openswan, so that package might be a good starting point for updating to network-manager- libreswan. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1692066 Title: [Request] Libreswan plugin for Network Manager Status in libreswan package in Ubuntu: New Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hello! I have the need to use Libreswan instead of strongswan to connect to an IPSec IKEv1 XAuth VPN in main mode without a group. Thing is strongswan doesn't support this configuration, so I explicitally need it. Nonetheless, libreswan is as developed as strongswan and it's widely used. using config files in /etc (ipsec.conf and .secrets) it's possible to correctly configure ipsec/libreswan, but needlessly to say, having the possibility to manage it via a GUI is 100 times better (and easier for "normal" users). In the current repositories (Zesty) I only found the libreswan's ipsec binaries (package libreswan), but not the network manager plugin (sources are available on github). I've tried to compile them, but I'm afraid they use a different path pattern than Ubuntu, so without making changes it's not possible to succesfully install it from sources.
