    as already said, that's not an option for us. There's no plan to retire strongswan-charon (and strongswan-starter) packages.

    Why would you drop the alternate dependency in Forky then?

    Because at some point I'd like that strongswan only dependency would be for charon-systemd and strongswan-swanctl.

    What should happen to users having strongswan and strongswan-charon installed when upgrading to Forky?

    I think I would have expected strongswan to be upgraded, strongswan-charon
    (and strongswan-starter) removed and charon-systemd/strongswan-swanctl installed.

    It would have been better to have the package co-installable but they bind on the same port so that doesn't really make sense.

    Btw. there is currently a new solver in apt that would remove strongswan-charon and install charon-systemd instead. That will likely become the default in Forky so it could work without a transition dummy package then.

    That would be nice, yes.

    In any case, I would propose to add the alternate dependency for Trixie
    and do do an upload soon as time is running out.

    I guess so…
