It looks like our already complicated situation with base OpenSSL and ports OpenSSL got even messier with the addition of LibreSSL. I recently installed security/libressl for the pending net/openntpd update (*). Now when I try to pkg delete it again, I get this: Installed packages to be REMOVED: libressl-2.1.6 openntpd-5.7p4,2 xorg-server-1.14.7_4,1 git-lite-2.3.5 mutt-1.5.23_8 xf86-video-mach64-6.9.4_5 xf86-video-nv-2.1.20_6 xf86-video-openchrome-0.3.3_5 xf86-video-r128-6.9.2_5 xf86-video-vesa-2.3.3_5 xf86-input-keyboard-1.8.0_7 xf86-input-mouse-1.9.0_6 xf86-video-ati-7.5.0_2 xf86-video-intel-2.21.15_7 xorg-drivers-7.7_3 xorg-7.7_2 Obviously LibreSSL has "infected" various other ports that happened to be recompiled while it was installed on the system. I'm glad that pkg(1) detects this, but the situation is certainly a surprise. Why did I want to remove LibreSSL, you ask? Because lang/python27 also picks it up, fails to build the _ssl module due to a missing RAND_egd(), and finally errors out on install. *) There is an interoperability problem with LibreSSL and ca_root_nss, which causes OpenNTPD's new https constraints feature to fail, which is why I haven't updated the net/openntpd yet. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de
