[strongSwan] syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting NAME or NEWLINE or '}' [`]

[John Brown]

Hi,

Did you try to remove "include strongswan.d/charon/*.conf" line for
testing?  If swan would stops complaining in that scenario then you can add
the line again and remove  some/all *conf file from include directory to
test. Then add some, etc.
