Openssl version , Is this ok ?

[Alain De Vos]

x@myfreebsd:~ $ pkg info | grep openssl
openssl35-3.5.8 TLSv1.3 capable SSL and crypto library

Many pre-compiled packages don't like it. Eg Chromium with incredible compile time.
Question can i install chromium, without asking impossible questions . (ie just do it)

There should be no longer an openssl35 package. The openssl package is now 3.5.9.

  The openssl port was renamed to openssl30 and subsequently the
  openssl35 port was renamed to openssl.

  The shared library version of OpenSSL has been bumped.

  Users of DEFAULT_VERSIONS= ssl=openssl35 must update this to
  ssl=openssl.
  Users of DEFAULT_VERSIONS= ssl=openssl30 should not change this unless
  they use ports that require the deprecated  OpenSSL 3.0 version with
  its documented vulnerabilities.

  You must rebuild all ports that depend on OpenSSL if you use OpenSSL
  from ports.

when pourdriere finishes, gone purge the other ugly one.

I would suggest simply sticking to the base OS version of OpenSSL.
