I get the following messages:

Code: Select all

> Identifying strongSwan version numbers on Web and in apt

% The version of strongSwan in apt is less than the minimum required version (5.8.0)
  You can still install the web version (5.9.4)
Do I want to install the web version? I don't know what that means.

Sorry. This is new. If you install the Web version it has to be built. If you install the apt version (for distros using apt), it's quicker and will be maintained by your package manager.

Okay, I'll see if I can find a PPA, because that's probably preferable.

It looks like it is recommending the Web version because the version maintained by the distro is too old.

If you can't, then the web version will be better; it's the way we installed it last time.

Couldn't find a PPA version, sadly.

Okay, I'm in but I don't know the password to log in to the server.
