use.desc: Correct/clarify SSL/TLS-related flags |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
Correct the description of SSL/TLS-related flags to match their modern |
| 11 |
use. USE=ssl is a feature flag that enables support for SSL/TLS, |
| 12 |
while USE=gnutls and USE=libressl are implementation toggling flags. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Unify the descriptions a bit. Make sure to mention both SSL and TLS |
| 15 |
to avoid confusion. Inform about the necessity of enabling USE=ssl |
| 16 |
in both implementation flags, and replace 'might' with 'if present'. |
