Error is:

Sounds like openvpn version 1 may not be compatible with openssl 1.1. We could change the port to have it use openssl 1.0.

Meanwhile, would you be able to use openvpn version 2, which is available in the openvpn2 port?

[mrkapqa]

Thank you,

it functions beautifully with openvpn2 (quite forgot about it).

if i may add a request:

did not find "streamlink", it seems offered by homebrew, but homebrew does tend to less support older mac os types like mine.

You may file a new ticket if you wish to request the addition of a new port.
