Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager-strongswan

/usr/lib/NetworkManager/libnm-strongswan-properties.so was linked against libnm_glib_vpn.so.0, but the package network-manager-strongswan does not depend on libnm-glib0.

The strongswan-nm package depends on libnm-glib2, which does not provide libnm_glib_vpn.so.0.

Using apt-get, network-manager-strongswan and its dependencies can be installed without errors, but in the VPN tab of nm-applet, the "add" button is disabled. After installing libnm-glib0, the button gets enabled and the VPN connections can be configured and established without problems.

Confirmed.
But I don't have any "libnm-glib0" on my repositories, so network-manager-strongswan is unusable for me.

Remove libnm-glib-vpn-dev from Build-Depends Edit (694 bytes, text/plain)

"libnm-glib0" has been removed from the repositories on 2009-10-05.

I had a closer look at the source package. The "network-manager-strongswan" source package fails to build on all architectures because the build dependency "libnm-glib-vpn-dev" is missing. This dependency is incorrect because the network manager package naming in Ubuntu differs from the package naming in Debian: In Ubuntu, the "network-manager-strongswan" package should build-depend on "libnm-glib-dev" instead of "libnm-glib-vpn-dev".

I tried this:
1.) Patch "Build-Depends" of network-manager-strongswan-1.1.1-1 source package (see attachment)
2.) Build and intall network-manager-strongswan binary package
3.) Rebuild and install strongswan-nm (without changes) to get DBUS bindings right

Now network-manager-strongswan does not need libnm-glib0 anymore and works for me.

I agree. Additionally, I have added missing shlibs and misc runtime dependencies (and updated standards-version). Requesting a sponsored upload.

Hi Martin,

To reduce the diff with Debian, I prefer to use the 1.1.1-2 as the basis for the change.

I'll use the Stefan's diff on the top of your 1.1.1-2, if you're ok with that.

This bug was fixed in the package network-manager-strongswan - 1.1.1-2ubuntu1

---------------
network-manager-strongswan (1.1.1-2ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * debian/control: deleted build dependency on libnm-glib-vpn-dev as the
    content of this package is in libnm-glib-dev in Karmic. That fixes a
    FTBFS (Thanks Stefan Osswald) (LP: #441334)
