--- Comment #10 from John Hein <z7dr6ut7gs@snkmail.com> ---
A possible workaround for you is to use DEFAULT_VERSIONS=3Dssl=3Dbase when =
building
security/p5-Crypt-SMIME (you can just put it in your environment).

Normally people put DEFAULT_VERSIONS=3Dssl=3DXXX in /etc/make.conf to expre=
ss a
preference for using a particular version of ssl (base, openssl, libressl) =
for
_all_ ports builds.  But there's nothing to say you can't define
DEFAULT_VERSIONS more "surgically" to be different for different ports.  Th=
ere
may be complications from doing that, but for a single deviation like this
port, you should be okay.

There has been some talk of altering what exactly is included in base for s=
sl
(e.g., removing it entirely or using a stripped down version of openssl for
just the things that the base OS needs - which would probably _not_ include
CMS).  So if that talk becomes some form of reality, depending on base for a
full-fledged openssl implementation for this port would not be a good long =
term
fix.

It seems to me the most fruitful direction would be to work on allowing
libressl & openssl to co-exist as ports.  I don't think libressl's goals ar=
e to
be 100% compatible with openssl, so these kinds of problems will always crop
up.
