[strongSwan] Strongswan 5.8 broke my setup

[A P]

I used to do:

systemctl restart strongswan
systemctl restart xl2tpd
ipsec up myvpn


Now the last step produces nothing!


The difference in the logs:

- new log (broken setup) has these, which old (working) does not have:
swanctl[29887]: no files found matching '/etc/swanctl/conf.d/*.conf'
swanctl[29887]: no authorities found, 0 unloaded
swanctl[29887]: no pools found, 0 unloaded
swanctl[29887]: no connections found, 0 unloaded

- old log (working) has these, which new one (broken) never has:
ipsec[1592]: charon (1601) started after 20 ms
ipsec_starter[1592]: charon (1601) started after 20 ms
charon[1601]: 07[CFG] received stroke: add connection 'myvpn'
charon[1601]: 07[CFG] added configuration 'myvpn'


Why did you have to break things?
