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]
