I am on Ubuntu MATE 14.10, I have all my software sources turned on in 'Software & Updates', I have run apt-get update, etc, but I am still getting the following error when I run sudo apt-get install openswan:

E: Package 'openswan' has no installation candidate

How do I install openswan?

You can fork the repo directly from Git repository. Then cd into your forked repo

git clone https://github.com/xelerance/Openswan.git fordername

To use Openswan with the linux native (builtin) IPsec stack, make programs:

sudo make install

To use the Openswan KLIPS IPsec stack (ipsec0 devices) for Linux Kernels 2.6.23 and higher, make programs

make KERNELSRC=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build module
sudo make KERNELSRC=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build install minstall
