As you would have known, had you bothered to spend
5 minutes with the archive, I already did most of
the packaging needed for freeswan. Currently, I
dislike their approach and have no motivation to
continue. My work can be picked up at
http://non-us.debian.org/~tv/freeswan-testing/
PS. I'm filing this RFP as a bug on WNPP, as is appropriate
these days..
