Created attachment 223907 [details]
patch-runtime-nsd__ossl.c

The attached patch is necessary to compile rsyslog8 (from ports HEAD). Upstream has not added this patch yet. I got this patch from:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/750842

and have verified that it allows rsyslog8 to compile.

Thank you very much for your submission. I shall update the port as soon as possible.

This should be submitted upstream -- as far as I can see, it hasn't appeared in rsyslog's github account yet.  Do you have any contacts with the Gentoo people that originally authored it?

(In reply to Matthew Seaman from comment #1)

I have no contacts with the gentoo people at all. I simply googled this idea and a solution appeared that was reasonable (as far as I can see, which might not be that far) and quick. 

I agree that it should be submitted upstream.
