I don't know what's the nixos policy regarding this release: it follows gnome rules and thus the odd version number indicates an unstable release.
Also the homepage contains a license warning https://github.com/nm-l2tp/NetworkManager-l2tp so it might be best to wait for an openssl 3 release before actually merging.
Meanwhile this is here for those who want to try and to prevent duplicate work. It works for me.
The closure size should increase as the package now requires openssl and nss.

Among the new features:
Adds user or machine TLS certificate support with L2TP/IPsec VPN servers cf:
https://github.com/nm-l2tp/NetworkManager-l2tp/blob/master/NEWS

This check has been added in nm-l2tp/NetworkManager-l2tp@56e82af,
i.e. l2tp version 1.7.0.

The source is not the exact 1.7.0 since a commit was added afterwards to work around nixos limitations.:
nm-l2tp/NetworkManager-l2tp@8a72e8f

Motivation for this change

    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions

We shouldn't merge it at an unstable release.
But yeah, that doesn't mean we shouldn't test unstable releases and get our work out the door for a draft.
