Re: How to use base OpenSSL with meson-based ports?

[Koichiro Iwao]

In my ports, I patch configure.ac to find OpenSSL not relying on
pkg-config.

Yes, I know how to deal with autotools. The problem is meson.

Maybe settings CFLAGS/LDFLAGS would help, indeed.

I think the recommended fix is to install misc/compat12x. I was suggested to
do that in another context and it worked for me. I gave the same suggestion
to someone else with the same problem and it also worked.

Thanks Lorenzo that worked, confirmed by 
cd /lib ; mv libncurses.so.8 libncurses.so.8.jhs
cd /usr/ports/misc/compat12x ; make install ; reboot

To identify package name for others:
make package
produces
/usr/ports/packages/All/compat12x-amd64-12.1.1201000.20200220.txz
however no
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-current/All
& I dont see  
"man pkg-info" 
has an option to list what's available on repository
(Eventualy I found
http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:13:amd64/latest/All/
with
compat12x-amd64-12.1.1201000.20200220.txz
pkg install compat12x-amd64-12.1.1201000.20200220
The most recent versions of packages are already installed
Which confirms the pkg name.)

Suggestion: to man pkg-info we should add to SEE ALSO http://pkg.freebsd.org

Cheers

Please note however that in most cases you should not need compat12x.
What is normally needed is to rebuild all the ports that depend on ncurses
on your system. When this is not possible, for example because instead of using
ports you use an out of date package repository that you cannot update or
because you install a port that needs "hand made" packages (such as
i386-wine or i386-wine-devel), then you need compat12x.

It seems xterm and firefox are up to date in the official repository:
http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:13:amd64/latest/All/ . I do not know how the
ports are built, it might be that they use some "hand made" packages.

Yeah, this ncurses bump was handled pretty badly, as it breaks almost 
all installed ports (and a bunch of base programs too, if you are 
unlucky). Isn't there any compat package for it yet?
