It is enabled. It is used for sure by openssl 1.1.0 on Linux and bu openssl 1.1.1 on FreeBSD, but not by openssl 1.0.2 and 1.1.0 on FreeBSD. Problem is, openssl 1.1.1 is not used by anything on FreeBSD (yet) and almost everything uses system (1.0.2) and only some other ports could use 1.1.0 from ports. -- Best regards, Lev mailto:l...@freebsd.org _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
