Description Jan 2013-02-08 08:55:36 UTC
Description of problem:
strongswan-NetworkManager-5.0.0-2.git20120619.fc17.x86_64 is installed, however, strongswan based IPsec VPNs cannot be created using nm-connection-editor.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
strongswan-NetworkManager-5.0.0-2.git20120619.fc17.x86_64

How reproducible:
Install the rpm, try to add strongswan based VPN via nm-connection-editor.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install strongswan-NetworkManager
2. nm-connection-editor
3. Select VPN -> "Add" 
  
Actual results:
 "IPsec/IKEv2 (strongswan)" should be available as an option, but it is not there.

Expected results:
 "IPsec/IKEv2 (strongswan)" should be available as an option,

Additional info:
I checked the source file from http://download.strongswan.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager-strongswan-1.3.0.tar.gz and I also compared against other NetworkManager VPN plugins (e.g. openswan, openvpn or vpnc). It looks like the strongswan-NetworkManager rpm is lacking (at least) the following files:
/etc/NetworkManager/VPN/nm-strongswan-service.name
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-strongswan-service.conf
/usr/share/gnome-vpn-properties/strongswan/nm-strongswan-dialog.ui
/usr/lib64/NetworkManager/libnm-strongswan-properties.so
/usr/libexec/nm-strongswan-auth-dialog

Without these files I don't think the openswan based VPN can be used by NetworkManager.

Then you might be willing to help reviewing the proper package or even help me with strongswan updates. I had some problems with them recently. Look for bugs submitted to strongswan if you're interested.
