Just IDEA is not included in binary FreeBSD distribution. In order to use It You must include "MAKE_IDEA= YES" line in /etc/make.conf and rebuild world. >From /etc/make.conf: # The following controls building optional IDEA code in libcrypto and # certain ports. Patents are involved - you must not use this unless # you either have a license or fall within patent 'fair use' # provisions. # # *** It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to determine if you can use this! *** # # IDEA is patented in the USA and many European countries - thought to # be OK to use for any non-commercial use. This is optional. #MAKE_IDEA= YES # IDEA (128 bit symmetric encryption)
