Package: openswan
Version: 1:2.4.6+dfsg.2-1.1
Severity: normal

The key generation during the openswan installation took more than 40
minutes on my system without any warning. The installation hung between
the following two lines:

  Setting up openswan (2.4.6+dfsg.2-1.1) ...
  Successfully created a plain openswan RSA keypair.

No CPU time was used and it looked like the postinstall script hangs.
A lot of other packages already warn you if a step takes only some
seconds, so openswan should print a warning that this step can take a
very long time.

Regards,

Uwe
