New comment by pullmoll on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/20935#issuecomment-612816313 Comment: I had myself several times where it was difficult to see in which way patching a source for libressl would be correct. This is because I do not know every detail of the differences between the openssl versions 1.0.x and 1.1.x, and the libressl API lies somewhere in between the two. So from my point of view using openssl could save us lots of work, and if a majority thinks that openssl is audited well enough nowadays, I'm pro switching.
