Looks like you're in the kind of catch-22 you can get when package managers get it wrong.

Have you tried adding the exact DEFAULT_VERSIONS expression as indicated, and/or asking on a FreeBSD forum?

At least with FreeBSD you should be able to roll back to the previous good snapshot, and wait out the storm until the maintainers get it right...

(One would have thought that the FreeBSD devs would have a Qt patch to make it work with LibreSSL ... and I for one wouldn't have thought they'd be at 5.15 already ;) )
