    initial v1  
    33If you want to keep and maintain just one `openssl` port, perhaps the simple solution is for the `openssl` port to install `@3.2.0_0` on the latest macOS releases and instal `#3.1.4_0` on older macOS releases.  This has been done with other ports like `go`.

    5 The downsides with this approach are possible security vulnerabilities for users of `openssl` on older Macs.   If security vulnerabilities are found with `@3.1.4` which are not fixed, then MacPosrts users of `openssl` may be exposed to security vulnerabilities.  Often developers only fix security vulnerabilities with the latest releases and will not fix older releases.
