#44313: Requesting LibreSSL -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: goodb0fh@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: request | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | -------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Well, creating a port is hopefully straightforward. Documentation is in our guide. Using it in place of openssl is more involved. If libressl is indeed designed to be a drop-in replacement for openssl, and uses the same library version number, then all ports that depend on openssl could be modified from port:-style dependencies to path:-style dependencies. If they are not library version compatible, however, then any port that uses openssl and could optionally use libressl would have to have variants added, and openssl and libressl would have to make sure that they don't try to install files to the same locations. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44313#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
