Bug Description

samth@hermes:~/sw/plt/collects/mzlib/private] sudo apt-get install openswan
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  openswan: Depends: libgmp3 but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

Testing on breezy as of 9/7/05
libgmp3 is not able to be installed
libgmp3c2 is installed.

Should libgmp3c2 provide libgmp3 or should openswan or one of it requirements be
built against libgmp3c2?

This is a tough one because openswan FTBFSs with gcc4 due to the inclusion of some kernel patches and such. It probably needs to be built with gcc3.4 only. Its on the UniverseUnmetDeps lists for MOTUs so it should get picked up. Thank you.
