Description Stefan de Konink 2015-01-28 21:09:55 UTC 
I am under the impression that the piddir setting from any strongswan compilation will point to /var/run, while this folder seems to be explicitly removed by a recent installation of systemd. Which result to a suboptimal situation where strongswan fails.

I'm not sure the configure is enough. The source code references /var/run in lots of places.
