So, we finally applied this series, but with quite a few changes:
- We were not happy with carrying all those patches to make those
packages compatible with LibreSSL, so instead we made them depend on
libopenssl only.
- For heirloom-mailx, we kept the patch because it looks acceptable
upstream. Could you submit it upstream, please?
- For softether, switching to a "depends on" was not acceptable, as it
would break existing defconfigs. So instead, we introduced a
BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSL_FORCE_LIBOPENSSL hidden boolean that tells the
openssl virtual package that only libopenssl is acceptable as a
provider.
- With your series, ca-certificates would not build, because it needs
host-openssl, which would be host-libressl, which doesn't exist.
However, using host-libressl would mean that all packages that
depend on host-openssl would have to be checked. So instead, we
defined BR2_PACKAGE_PROVIDES_HOST_OPENSSL to host-libopenssl, which
forces host-openssl to always point to host-libopenssl.
With those changes, series applied. Now, it would be helpful to update
utils/genrandconfig to randomly enable libressl instead of openssl to
get this situation tested by the autobuilders.
Thanks a lot!
Thomas
