Some progress but not ready yet sorry. Been busy :). The debian package appears to have an exhaustive list of licensing information for all files in this package here[1]. There are a few files under the 4-clause BSD which appear to only be related to DES encryption. Debian's solution to this is to just disable DES to avoid compiling and including the binaries from those 4-clause BSD files. Would that be an acceptable solution for Guix as well? I can write a tool to convert the information from debian/copyright into a format suitable for the Guix package. [1] - https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-swan/strongswan.git/tree/debian/c= opyright
