Johanna Amann commented on BIT-1506:
------------------------------------

[~grigorescu] - one more small question:

in your branch, you use the ports,brew,find binaries to find the path. Would it make sense to still, in addition, hardcode /opt/local, /usr/local and /sw just in case there are more people like me who, e.g., do not have the commands in their default search path?

If that is ok, I will just do that during merging. At least at the moment I am hard pressed to come up with a disadvantage to this.

> It looks like Apple removed the OpenSSL headers with El Capitan[1] (OS X
> 10.11), and now Bro fails to build on OS X. Apple's recommendation is
> that we either include a copy of OpenSSL ourselves or we use their
> Secure Transport API.
