> connect my ubuntu laptop to an ipsec VPN. Is network-manager-
strongswan the correct VPN package

Probably not, the NetworkManager plugin supports IPsec VPNs using the
newer IKEv2 protocol. The protocol is currently supported by a few
vendors only,

> network-manager-strongswan: Depends: strongswan-nm but it is not
installable

The problem is that strongSwan NetworkManager plugin was in Debian testing, 
while the reqired strongSwan base packages was not (hence the missing 
dependency).
In the meantime, both are in testing now, but the Debian Import Freeze is over. 
I suggest to manually import the new Debian source packages 
network-manager-strongswan and strongswan.
