emerge --info output for net-misc/ networkmanager-openswan

After installing net-misc/networkmanager-openswan-1.0.8 it does not appear in networkmanager GUI in Gnome-it's impossible to add IPSec interface with Network Manager.

Please try networkmanager-libreswan.

Thanks Mike,
this worked, but can you at least mask networkmanager-openswan so that others do not hit the same issue?

In portage:
networkmanager-libreswan is masked
networkmanager-openswan is not masked
networkmanager-openswan depends on libreswan and pulls it as a dependency, however cannot work with it because of '** Message: vpn: (openswan,/etc/NetworkManager/VPN/nm-openswan-service.name) cannot load legacy-only plugin'.

Thank you,
-Nik

Also in upstream page is shown that people must move to libreswan with current NM versions:
