It certainly seems possible via SRU, however, the best course of action is
to get
some testing done on the current packages; If we have someone who can
validate
the changes work and connect to their VPN then it'll be much faster to get
the changes
included and verified.

Title:
cannot load legacy-only plugin
Status in network-manager-strongswan package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Strongswan isn't presented as an option when I want to add a VPN in
NetworkManager (GUI), despite the fact that the latest network-
manager-strongswan (1.3.1-1ubuntu1) is installed.
From /var/log/syslog:
May 4 13:42:16 workmate gnome-session[1833]: ** Message: vpn:
(strongswan,/etc/NetworkManager/VPN/nm-strongswan-service.name) cannot
load legacy-only plugin
$ dpkg-query --status network-manager-strongswan | grep ^Version
Version: 1.3.1-1ubuntu1
$ dpkg-query --status network-manager | grep ^Version
Version: 1.1.93-0ubuntu4
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Release: 16.04
Could be related to #1570352, but since the error-message is
different, I created a new bug report
I found network-manager-openconnect had a same issue, upstream fixed
this by porting the code to use libnm [1] and [2]
