Package: strongswan-starter Version: 6.0.1-6+deb13u1 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected], [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, I was attempting to run strongswan using SysV init. >From what I understand, /etc/init.d/ipsec is the latest version available of the script that upstream dropped some 5 years ago. Since then, strongswan has deprecated the old ipsec.conf format in favour of swanctl.conf. The systemd scripts launch the daemon first and then invoke swanctl to load the new-style configuration, but the existing /etc/init.d/ipsec does not. Other non-systemd distributions (e.g. openwrt and alpine) use separate launchers to leave users the choice, upstream systemd seems to do it the new way only, but I haven't delved too much into it. What do you think would be the best solution here?
