Anyone?
I'll be happy to guide through the process.
Will make extremely good use of the 2.5 years old "net/bitcoin"
OpenBSD-WIP port.
(Alternatively possibly I could try to do it myself and then document
where things seriously break here, and ask for your followup. Maybe that
followup basically would require you to go through my instructions
anyhow though so might be same ..)
Pascal:
BitcoinD is the reference quality Bitcoin network router software. The
routing function is the central function in the network.
* Your suggestion that a BitcoinD port in OpenBSD would be a waste of
time because its wallet functionality not works out of the box now,
would be like saying that Unix machine is useless because it's not
running X.
* Also, BitcoinD's installer warns of LibreSSL not be cause any issue
has been found ever, but simply because LibreSSL is the only OpenSSL
alternative that is not vanilla OpenSSL -
There is not one simple example of when BitcoinD has misbehaved when
running with LibreSSL, and it will stop using OpenSSL in some version
soon.
For this reason I think it's motivated for the OpenBSD port of
BitcoinD to simply use LibreSSL for now. If it would break the routing
function, someone would notice soon.
Problem solved.

For this reason I suggest that OpenBSD is included into the ports

Err - for this reason I suggest that *BitcoinD* is included into the
ports tree.
That it's precompiled with "--disable-wallet" is all fine. If anyone
wants to fix that later it's fine. Now let's get the router working!

I think this needs some serious work, at least an updated
databases/db/v4 and some solution to that ugly LibreSSL problem.
I'm not really using this in any way, so I won't spend that kind of
effort on it.

Guys,
What do you say, do you feel this is a relevant port?
