This thing has been neglected for ages, needs a version bump and has
lots of stale open bugs:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124272

If you are using IPSec and would like to make it working again on
Gentoo, please step up and see the above bugs.

Thanks.

Since no one else stepped up (spooky...), I will take the maintainership.

Sorry, but I use strongswan for my IPSec-connections...
There were some problems with openswan some time (a year?)
ago and I just switched to another solution.

Cool, that one needs a maintainer as well... :)

Will look into it during the next days for sure ;-)  (I
already hit that kernel version bug on one machine.)

I think strongswan's ebuild should be simplified.
I will bump openswan to 2.4.7 in a couple of days. Please use it as
starting point for your bump.

Yep.  I looked into it this morning.  A lot of checks from
the time before we had linux-info.eclass.  Starting from
scratch might be an option ;-)

While we are at it: Should we keep installing the config
into /etc/ipsec/ and create symlinks from /etc/ipsec.d ->
/etc/ipsec/ipsec.d ?  I think we are the only distro which
installs the configs into /etc/ipsec, some others place
ipsec.{conf,d,secrets} just into /etc

I find that useful. It is more easy to find ipsec related files this way.
Don't forget you can include other files into ipsec.conf. Custom updown
scripts can also be grouped this way.

If you feel we should drop /etc/ipsec directory, a poll on forums might
tell us what users want.
