Bug Description

following OVS IPsec Tutorial at
https://docs.openvswitch.org/en/latest/tutorials/ipsec/?highlight=ipsec

Trying to install openvswitch-ipsec_*.deb failed:
# sudo apt-get install openvswitch-ipsec
E: Unable to locate package openvswitch-ipsec

later on after few search, we found (with the help of Manfred Hampl) that:
2.8.1 - Removed deprecated openvswitch-ipsec
2.11.0 - Reintroduce the openvswitch-ipsec package.

Is it missing?

as for now:

# apt-get install openvswitch-ipsec
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package openvswitch-ipsec:i386 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'openvswitch-ipsec:i386' has no installation candidate

Using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS kernel 5.4.0-26-generic
when running "sudo apt install openvswitch..." I get:
openvswitch-switch is already the newest version (2.13.0-0ubuntu1).

This bug was fixed in the package openvswitch - 2.15.0-0ubuntu4

---------------
openvswitch (2.15.0-0ubuntu4) impish; urgency=medium

  * Re-introduce openvswitch-ipsec package (LP: #1912610):
    - d/control: Add openvswitch-ipsec with relevant dependencies.
    - d/openvswitch-ipsec.*: Install ipsec monitor script and provide
      systemd service for this feature.
    - d/p/ovs-ctl-ipsec.patch: Skip monitoring of ipsec daemon as
      systemd will do this.
  * d/rules: Drop redundant usage of --with=systemd.
  * d/copyright: Tidy to remove usage of tabs.
  * d/p/ovs-dirs.patch: Cherry pick fix to ensure that Python module
    uses configured runtime directories.
