[LEDE-DEV] MacOS X SSL check

[Waldemar Brodkorb]

Hi,

I am not able to compile LEDE on my Mac.
Apple removed OpenSSL from latest Xcode.
I can install openssl from MacPorts and extend
HOST_CFLAGS to use /opt/local/include and /opt/local/lib, but
then later GDB does not compile, because it conflicts
with something in my /opt/local/include installed via 
MacPorts. U-Boot requires SSL for some host tools,
so the cleanest solution to me, would be inclusion of
openssl or libressl to tools/ and provide it by LEDE
while compiling.

What you think about it? Would you accept a patch?
Should it depend on Darwin, or should it detect if
ssl.h is found and if not build openssl/libressl?

Would you prefer libressl over openssl? Libressl is faster
to compile and more secure, if you ask me.

best regards
 Waldemar
