Actually this isn't as bad as I first thought, but it can be. Let me illustrate how/why.

iptables changed its -dev packaging.
Then strongswan adapted by changing iptables-dev to libip4tc-dev + libip6tc-dev.

If strongswan would have stayed as-is it woul still work. But due to adapting to the former change in 1.8.4-1 for debian #939243 it now after 1.8.4-2 for #947176 is an FTBFS.

While we could merge the newer iptables in general (therefore leaving this bug open, but change to 1.8.4 merge request) I think I can fix the current issue in strongswan by adding a build-dependency to get the old libiptc.pc installed.

Yep gets me back to checking for libiptc... yes

Adding a Strongswan task ...
