DetailsDescription:
Since version 5.9, OpenBSD has added TLS support on netcat (nc) tool, using -c switch (http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/man1/nc.1). The 'nc' tool is now bundled with libressl and will use libressl's libtls.so.11, libcrypto.so.38, and libssl.so.39 to provide TLS functionality. I've provided an aur package 'libressl-netcat' to show the new OpenBSD's netcat capability. I've attached my PKGBUILD as reference to utilize nc from libressl portable sources. Additional info: * version: openbsd-netcat 1.105_7-7 Steps to reproduce: The old netcat doesn't have -c switch to connect to TLS servers. The new OpenBSD's netcat should be able to connect to TLS servers using -c switch. $ printf "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.google.com\r\nUser-Agent: netcat\r\n\r\n" | nc -w 1 -v -c www.google.com 443

Reason for closing: Won't implement
Additional comments about closing: let's wait and maybe move libressl-netcat to community as separate package.

I've edited the PKGBUILD to build a static nc, so that libtls, libcrypto, and libssl are embedded within nc executable.

I think we need 10 votes for https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libressl-netcat/ to do it.
