Let's Encrypt port missing

[mahescho]

Hi,

I've found and want to use: https://wiki.freebsd.org/BernardSpil/LetsEncrypt but neither in pkg finds it nor I can find it in ports on FreeBSD 11. How can I install this script or how can I use Let's Encrypt fully automated?

TIA
Matthias

The port has been moved to security/acme-client.

thanks, it seems that there is no package "acme-client", why?

It requires LibreSSL and packages are built against OpenSSL by default. LibreSSL and OpenSSL from ports cannot be installed along side each other.

The port relies on LIbreSSL, while by default the ports system builds all ports against OpenSSL. From the Makefile:

.if empty(SSL_DEFAULT:M*libressl*)
IGNORE= needs LibreSSL to build. set DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=ssl=libressl \
        and rebuild all ports that depend on openssl
.endif

Since the first party Let's Encrypt client, i.e. the one recommended by Let's Encrypt, is in the ports and a package exist as well, I suggest to use this one. I use it without any problems, and with a little bit of scripting it can be automated by the way of a cron job.

See: security/py-certbot

You may also find security/dehydrated useful.

What obsigna said. Here is the excellent web site for certbot including support for FreeBSD.

why fix what wasn't broken, oh well..

 

[drhowarddrfine]

It's not a fix. It's an easier user interface.
