This is also the issue with ports-mgmt/pkg on a system that still
requires OpenSSL 1.0.2 from ports in order to support an old client.
cwfw# pkg info
ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.9: version OPENSSL_1_1_0
required by /usr/local/lib/libpkg.so.4 not defined
cwfw#
If I remove security/openssl, the above issue is resolved however the
old client, which should be replaced next year, fails to communicate
with the server. The classic rock & a hard place scenario.
