Verify RHEL 10 has the "libreswan" service package installed with the following command:

$ sudo dnf list --installed libreswan
Installed Packages
libreswan.x86_64                                         5.2-1.el10_0                                         @AppStream

If the "libreswan" package is not installed, this is a finding.
