ebuild for disabling ssl

Build nodejs either with --shared-ssl or --without-ssl. Additional patch to node is needed for building without ssl.

patch for building node without ssl

[Comment 9 Johannes Hirte 2017-05-02 07:27:19 UTC]

When nodejs is build without ssl, npm doesn't work: 

probook ~ # npm
internal/util.js:80
    throw new Error('Node.js is not compiled with openssl crypto support');
    ^

Error: Node.js is not compiled with openssl crypto support
    at Object.exports.assertCrypto (internal/util.js:80:11)
    at crypto.js:7:14
    at NativeModule.compile (bootstrap_node.js:526:7)
    at Function.NativeModule.require (bootstrap_node.js:467:18)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:427:25)
    at Module.require (module.js:498:17)
    at require (internal/module.js:20:19)
    at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/lib64/node_modules/npm/node_modules/uuid/lib/rng.js:4:10)
    at Module._compile (module.js:571:32)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:580:10)

So maybe building node without ssl should be combined with disabling npm. At least chromium-58 could be build, so this is a workaround for libressl users.

I confirm the same problem for net-libs/nodejs-7.10.0:

>>> Configuring source in /var/tmp/portage/net-libs/nodejs-7.10.0/work/node-v7.10.0 ...
Error: --without-ssl is incompatible with --shared-openssl
