Why has LibreSSL stopped releasing windows binaries as of 2.6?

In this list:

https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/LibreSSL/

there are no longer files libressl-*-windows.zip as of version 2.6.0.

Was an announcement made public about that?

Solution

  • In a message sent to the LibreSSL mailing list on 2017-07-03,

    Windows binaries are no longer included with LibreSSL 2.6.0. The Windows build process has improved substantally, supporting multiple compilers, environments, and ABIs. Because of slight variations between these environments, and because it is so easy to build on Windows in general, we are releasing source code only for all platforms moving forward.
