Building Bootstrap .NET for Gentoo (LibreSSL)

[blucybrb14de]

Discussed in #4725

Hello,

I'm currently attempting to port dotnet-sdk to Gentoo on a LibreSSL system, and attempting to create a new ebuild for dotnet-sdk. The trouble is, I am not able to build my own bootstrap when looking at the documentation, as it appears that the buildbootstrapcli.sh is missing, and not a part of a ./scripts directory on the main branch.

It seems to mention that it is possible build a bootstrap for dotnet-sdk for a LibreSSL system, using the build bootstrap, and I would like to attempt to give non-official support in the LibreSSL overlay, however the steps to do so seemed to be obscured

I did not try to look to look through the commit history, but I can't seem to find the relevant information in order to do so. If anyone could please provide any instructions to continue to bootstrap, I would love to continue to run and test LibreSSL on Gentoo, for the packages that depend on it, and to do so for the foreseeable future.

Much Appreciated.

Note that when attempting to build dotnet-sdk, with libressl and the bootstrap binary, it results with the following error, against LibreSSL 4.0.0:

Please let me know if I am missing something or if there are any other workarounds that I could use to package this for Gentoo GNU/Linux,

Thanks.
