I just tried to upgrade on Gentoo to libressl with the development repository enabled and all unstable packages unmasked and solved some issues and I'm still not able to rebuild world in one easy try from the preview I get. It will be fun though and puts some packages to practice. It would be nice if we could have some automatized testing for failure with an libressl branch which just replaces every dependency on openssl with current libressl (current version drops sslv3 and replaces sslv3 with tls1,2,2.1 usage from what I read in the bugtracker for Gentoo) and see where patches are needed in Guix until upstream has fixes. -- ng irc://loupsycedyglgamf.onion:67/~NiAsterisk https://psyced.org:34443/NiAsterisk/ EDN: https://wiki.c3d2.de/Echt_Dezentrales_Netz/en
