Hi Terry,

From dpkg(1):
--force-things
--no-force-things, --refuse-things
...
Warning: These options are mostly intended to be used by experts
only. Using them without fully understanding their effects may
break your whole system.
You're using APT which understands dependencies between packages. With
dpkg(1), you're ducking under APT and fiddling with things without its
knowledge, breaking its assumptions.
I'd use
sudo -i apt-get purge --auto-remove strongswan
