Description

security/openvpn: license incompat mbedTLS, LZO+LibreSSL

After reviewing licenses again,

  • mark mbedTLS broken for now, since it uses the Apache License 2.0, which is incompatible with the GPLv2 (OpenVPN does not employ the "or any later version" escape hatch). This will be handed to the OpenVPN-devel mailing list for review.
  • block out the combination of LZO with LibreSSL, since OpenVPN only has a linking exception for OpenSSL itself. Remedy is to either forgo LibreSSL, or to disable the LZO option, which requires proper configuration on either end. The maintainer's recommendation is to compile with OpenSSL instead.

Bump PORTREVISION in spite of unchanged contents to flush out old
packages.
